1961 Map of Blue

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Blue River carves a deep path through this section of the Apache National Forest, defining the remote geography along the Arizona New Mexico border. The settlement of Blue and the nearby Blue Ranger Sta serve as the primary human hubs in a landscape dominated by the high Mogollon Rim. Small outposts and landmarks like Carlton Vista, Cosper, and Jackson Box are scattered throughout the river valley and its adjacent canyons. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, from the Blue Springs in the north to the Bear Mtn Lookout and Auger Peak in the south. Notable water sources such as Cleveland Spr, Cedar Spring, and Milligan Lake provide critical points of interest for those studying the water usage and ranching history of this high-country region.
