1918 Map of Victorio

USGS Topo · Published 1918

About this map

The Cedar Mountain Range dominates this 1918 topographical study of the New Mexico borderlands, a landscape defined by ranching and early mining ventures. The El Paso and Southwestern railroad cuts diagonally across the arid terrain, connecting the settlement of Victorio with the wider regional economy. This corridor was vital for the movement of cattle and ore during the early 20th century, as evidenced by the network of water sources like Wamels Pond and Wamels Upper Well that supported livestock in the open range.
