About this map

Animas Range peaks and the broad floor of the Playas Valley dominate this southwestern New Mexico landscape during the late years of World War I. This era marks a peak of localized ranching and mining activity, with the map recording a dense network of family cattle operations such as the Lane Ranch, Seven K Ranch, and O K Bar Ranch. Evidence of the region’s mineral interest is clear at the Gillespie Mine and the already Red Hill Mine (abandoned) near the eastern foothills.
