1950 Map of Vanar

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor defines the northern landscape of this borderland region, connecting the settlement of Vanar to the rugged peaks of Steins Mtn. In the mid-century, this arid valley served as a critical nexus for ranching and resource extraction, evidenced by the Cienega Ranch and various mineral operations like the Alex Mine and a Granite Quarry. The San Simon Creek drainage cuts through the center of the sheet, creating a natural pathway through the basin toward the San Simon Cienega near the state line.
