1990 Map of Crookson Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Gila National Forest defines the landscape of this Grant County survey, where the rugged terrain is marked by a deep history of resource extraction and frontier life. High peaks such as Crookson Peak and Juniper Peak overlook a network of canyons and draws, including Bear Canyon and Alexander Creek. The map documents numerous mining operations that once fueled the local economy, from the Billali Mine and Norman King Mine in the southern reaches to the Apache Box Adits further north. Traces of early habitation and conflict are visible through labels for the Old Ranch near Bircher Flats, a lone Grave, and a site identified as a Battleground near Cherry Creek. This remote corner of New Mexico is further detailed by its vital water sources, such as Horse Pasture Spring and Fish Spring, which were essential for both cattle ranching and mining in this arid environment.
