1950 Map of Tyrone

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Burro Mountains define the high-desert landscape of this corner of Grant County, where the Continental Divide weaves across the rugged terrain. The 1950 field check reveals a region heavily shaped by mineral extraction, particularly centered on Tyrone, where the infrastructure of an industrial mining era is visible through features like the Klondike Tunnel and numerous shafts. A small Cem and a Brick Kiln near Oak Grove Creek suggest the domestic life that once supported these remote operations.
