1950 Map of Vanar

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

San Simon Creek carves a broad path through the high desert of the Arizona and New Mexico border, defining a landscape where water and transit dominate survival. Along the Southern Pacific railroad line, the settlement of Vanar serves as a remote waypoint near the state line, while to the south, the San Simon Cienega provides a rare marshy oasis in an otherwise arid basin. The map reveals a mid-century economy built on resource extraction and cattle ranching, evidenced by the Granite Quarry, the Mineral Mtn Mine, and the Cienega Ranch.
