About this map

Apache National Forest straddles the high-altitude boundary between Greenlee County, Arizona, and Catron County, New Mexico. This 1991 provisional survey documents a landscape defined by deep drainages like Steeple Canyon and Cow Canyon that feed into the Blue River. The map highlights a network of water sources vital to the region's ranching and wilderness history, including Dutch Oven Spring, Cashier Spring, and Maverick Spring. High points such as WS Mountain and Whiterocks Mountain overlook the Blue Range Wilderness, where geological formations like Devils Monument rise above the Tige Rim. Settlement is sparse, represented primarily by the Jones Cemetery near the river, illustrating the solitary nature of life along the state line in the late 20th century.
