1999 Map of Black Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Apache National Forest lands dominate this high-altitude landscape in Catron County, where the topography centers on the namesake Black Peak. The terrain is defined by a series of significant drainage systems and geological features, including the West Fork Centerfire Creek and the long descent of Hardcastle Canyon. Water management is the primary evidence of human activity throughout this region, indicated by a dense network of tanks and springs such as White Bluff Spring, Dripping Spring, and Mullen Tank. The settlement at Renfro and the open expanse of Mangitas Flat provide specific points of interest for those tracking historical land use. This survey captures a moment when the Quemado Luna Ranger District was managing the intersection of natural resources and high-desert range, where isolated landmarks like Hardcastle Gap and Johnson Basin served as critical navigational waypoints.
