About this map

Wheeler Peak, the highest point in New Mexico, dominates this alpine landscape within the Carson National Forest. Surveyed in the early 1960s, the map detail captures the high-altitude industrial and recreational character of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains before modern development expanded. The settlement of Twining sits at the head of Rio Hondo, serving as a gateway to the Bull of the Woods Pasture Mines and various mineral Mines scattered near Frazer Mountain.
