1973 Map of Victorio Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Sierra Diablo range dominates the western horizon of this Culberson County landscape, rising sharply above the desert floor. This 1973 survey captures a remote ranching environment defined by vital water sources like Victorio Well, North Well, and the seasonal Baylor Pond. The presence of the Corn Ranch and the Victorio Canyon Jeep Trail suggests the rugged infrastructure required to navigate the canyons and peaks of the Baylor Mountains to the south. A prominent green-shaded depression marks the central basin, highlighting the stark contrast between the high summits of Victorio Peak and the low-lying Baylor Draw. Researchers will find a meticulously detailed record of the catchment tanks and wells that sustained high-desert life and industry in the decades following the mid-century.
