1944 Map of Tascotal Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The high plateau country of the Trans-Pecos region is defined here by the massive elevations of Tascotal Mesa and Bandera Mesa. In this 1917 survey, reissued during the Second World War, the landscape is primarily organized around the sparse water sources and essential transport routes necessary for cattle ranching. The Marfa and Lajitas Road serves as the primary artery through this high desert, supplemented by the Seminole Trail and Agua Fria Trail.
