1995 Map of El Dado Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

The high desert landscape of El Dado Mesa is defined by a complex network of seasonal water catchments and historic land divisions in New Mexico's McKinley County. The map details a transition from the elevated Chivato Ridge down toward the Cebolleta Grant boundary, where an extensive collection of livestock tanks and natural basins like Laguna Grande and Laguna de Alejandro support the high-altitude ranching economy. This 1990s survey preserves the placement of isolated structures like the Ranger Cabin and Grande Camp, alongside named springs such as Ojo del Dado and La Vent Spring. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages like the Cañon del Dado and Arroyo Cañoneros, illustrating the vital importance of water management in the Cibola National Forest through features like the Alejandro Water Tank and Heller Tank.
