About this map

Diablo Range defines the high-altitude landscape of this 2011 survey in Grant County, where the terrain is marked by a complex network of canyons and peaks. Notable landmarks like White Pinnacle and Granite Peak stand above the drainage basins of Mogollon Creek and Turkey Creek. The map documents a rugged wilderness area where water sources such as McKenna Tank and the seasonal flows of Rawmeat Creek were critical for local navigation and livestock.

Evidence of ranching and early land use is found in the naming of McKenna Park and Corral Canyon, suggesting a history of cattle movement through these mountain passes. The intersection of deeply carved features like Miller Spring Canyon and Sycamore Canyon illustrates the erosion patterns characteristic of this corner of New Mexico. This survey preserves the exact nomenclature of the backcountry as it existed at the start of the 2010s.
