1963 Map of Apache Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the winding course of Tularosa Canyon and its many tributaries during the early 1960s. This survey captures a terrain marked by ranching and water management infrastructure, where named features like Pete Gaines Tank, Pete Gaines Well, and Pete Gaines Canyon indicate historical land use and family associations in Otero County. High points such as Harley Mtn and the central Apache Summit overlook a network of seasonal watercourses, including the North Fork Tularosa Canyon and South Fork Tularosa Canyon. Evidence of early recreation and utility is present via a Campground and Sewage Disposal Ponds near the summit, while smaller features like Telephone Tank and Wink Tank suggest the localized development of the reservation's high-country resources.
