2017 Map of East Mesa

About this map

East Mesa dominates the landscape of this Cibola County plateau, a region defined by dramatic vertical relief and traditional routes. The terrain is marked by sharp geographic features such as Petoch Butte and the distinct Needle Pinnacle, which rise above a network of deep drainage systems like Petoch Wash and Sand Canyon. Sparse but vital water sources are noted, including Frank Paisano Spring located below the mesa's eastern edge.
