2001 Map of Algerita Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Lincoln National Forest land dominates this high-altitude landscape in southern New Mexico, where the dramatic escarpment of The Rim separates the upper plateaus from the lower desert basins. The map illustrates a specialized system of water management essential for livestock and forestry in this arid environment, evidenced by named facilities such as Coon Dog Well Storage Tank, Patterson Water Storage Tank, and the Algerita Tank. To the west, the terrain drops steeply into the expanse of Big Dog Canyon and toward the Salt Flat, while the southern portion of the sheet is defined by the rugged Brokeoff Mountains. This 2001 revision highlights the intersection of natural topography and utility, showing the network of light-duty and unimproved roads that navigate features like Powers Ridge and Algerita Canyon.
