1978 Map of Carrisito Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Carrisito Spring sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape, where the borders of Arizona and New Mexico converge. This 1970s survey captures a transition point between Apache County and Catron County, defined by a series of dramatic canyons and ephemeral watercourses. The drainage patterns of Little Blanco Canyon and Blanco Canyon dictate the local topography, carving paths through the plateau alongside Twentytwo Draw and Carrizo Wash. Human infrastructure is sparse, limited to utilitarian features necessary for livestock and travel across the arid terrain. Mapping identifies several corrals, a Water Tank, and a Well, connected by a winding Jeep Trail. These elements, along with Horse Can, provide a clear picture of the remote grazing and ranching life characteristic of the Four Corners region in the late twentieth century.
