1965 Map of Canteen Canyon

About this map

Mogollon Creek and the Gila River carve a complex drainage system through this corner of the Gila National Forest in the mid-1960s. The landscape is defined by massive plateau features like Mud Spring Mesa and Wild Horse Mesa, which rise above a network of deep canyons including Bell Canyon and Winn Canyon. Human presence is concentrated near the river, where the Fort West Ditch and an Aqueduct indicate historical water management for local agriculture and ranching. Small settlements and named family sites like Maldonado and Guerrero are found in the south, while the northern reaches remain protected within the Gila Wilderness. Local history researchers will find the Maldonado Cem and isolated landmarks such as the 916 Ranch providing important genealogical anchors for this remote Grant County terrain.
