1995 Map of Dog Springs

About this map

Cibola National Forest encompasses the high country of the Datil Mountains and the Gallinas Mts in this high-altitude livestock and water-management landscape. The map reveals a complex network of canyons, including Dog Springs Canyon, Thompson Canyon, and Rock House Canyon, where terrain dictates the placement of essential water infrastructure. This late-twentieth-century revision, updated by the Forest Service, documents a geography of survival where remote wells and windmills serve as the primary landmarks. Family names and specific sites like the John Henry Windmill, Rincon Windmill, and Ramsey Windmill highlight the intersection of individual land use and public forest management. Toward the southern extent, the mountains give way to the plains near North Lake, marking a distinct shift from the steep canyon systems to more open cattle country along the Catron and Socorro County line.
