Three Rivers
Located in the Tularosa Basin east of the great lava flows known as the Malpais, Three Rivers was once prominent in the cattle empires of Albert Bacon Fall, John S. Chisum, and Susie McSween Barber, “the cattle queen of New Mexico.” Charles B. Eddy’s El Paso & Northeastern Railroad reached here in 1899.
