1978 Map of Valentine East

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The town of Valentine serves as a focal point along the Southern Pacific railroad line in this 1978 survey of the high desert landscape. As the tracks cut diagonally across the terrain, they pass small railroad sidings and named locations like Quebec near the southern boundary. The presence of a High Sch and a local Cem within the town limits highlights the community's role as a regional center, even as the surrounding landscape is dominated by large-scale ranching and water infrastructure. Ranch life is evidenced by family-named landmarks and water sources such as the Bell Place Windmill, One Lung Windmill, and Red Well. The boundary between Jeff Davis Co Presidio Co runs through the lower third of the map, intersecting the drainages of Wood Canyon and Merrill Canyon as they reach toward the railroad corridor.
