1954 Map of Volcano Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Volcanoes dominate this arid landscape on the western edge of the Rio Grande valley during the mid-1950s. The map illustrates a transitional space defined by massive Spanish land grants, including the Town of Alameda Grant and the Town of Atrisco Grant, which preserved large tracts of open range before the eventual expansion of Albuquerque. High points like VABM Vulcan 6033 and VABM Meda 6293 provide surveying benchmarks across the volcanic escarpment.
