1960 Map of Apache Springs

About this map

The Gallinas River and its deeply incised tributaries define the landscape of this portion of San Miguel County. The high plateaus of Las Vegas Mesa and Mesas Cuatas overlook a network of canyons where small settlements and ranching headquarters established a foothold by the mid-20th century. Notable among these is San Augustin, which served as a local hub with its Lourdes Sch and post office. The geography of the region is punctuated by archaeological and historical markers, including the Aurupa ruins and various named springs like Apache Springs and Deer Spring. To the south, the terrain shifts toward the Santa Fe National Forest and the Mesita de los Ladrones, illustrating the transition from open grazing land to protected timber and high-desert mesa country.
