2023 Map of Continental Divide
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
The Continental Divide crests through this high-altitude landscape of McKinley County, serving as a primary geographical anchor for the surrounding high-desert settlements. The South Fork Puerco River winds through the northern sections, passing near the communities of Coolidge, Gonzales, and Thoreau. This modern survey reveals the persistent influence of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad’s legacy on current infrastructure, where major transportation corridors like W Coolidge Rd and Frontage Rd parallel the historic rail path. To the south, the topography transitions into the protected lands of the Cibola National Forest, marked by steep drainages such as Whitewater Canyon and Foster Canyon. The map provides specific local details for land management and genealogy, from the remote North Guam area to the livestock-related infrastructure of Radar Tank and the seasonal waters of Gonzales Lake.
