About this map

The Gila National Forest forms the backdrop of this high-elevation terrain where the Diablo Range and Mogollon Mountains converge. The landscape is defined by a dense network of water sources and canyons, including named features like Horse Spring, Dumbo Spring, and McKenna Spring. These isolated springs and tanks, such as McKenna Tank and Dry Lake Tank, provide essential water in a region marked by deep drainages like Hells Canyon and Skeleton Canyon.

Evidence of early land management and ranching history is found in the survey lines for Catron Co Grant Co and the presence of high-altitude landmarks like White Pinnacle and Granite Peak. The mapping of small creeks such as Turkey Cr and Rawmeat Cr reveals the intricate drainage patterns that flow through McKenna Park and Johnson Canyon, providing a detailed look at the geographic character of this corner of New Mexico during the early twenty-first century.
