1916 Map of Tularosa
USGS Topo · Published 1916About this map
Tularosa serves as the primary gateway to a varied landscape of stark geological formations and remote ranching outposts in the years preceding the First World War. The region is defined by the expansive white gypsum of White Sands and the dark volcanic flows of The Malpais, bordered by the prominent Oscuro Mountains and the Godfrey Hills. Resource extraction and transport are central to the local economy, evidenced by the Mockingbird Gap Mine in the northwest and the El Paso and Southwestern railroad cutting a north-south path through the valley.
