1966 Map of Tanque

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The settlement of Tanque and the nearby L L Ranch define the human footprint in this arid landscape as it was recorded in the mid-1960s. The region is shaped by the drainage patterns of the San Simon River, which is fed by numerous desert watercourses such as Owl Wash and Cove Draw. Transportation and communication are anchored by the Southern Pacific railroad line, which runs north-to-south parallel to the river. This alignment illustrates the historical reliance on natural corridors for rail infrastructure in the desert Southwest.
