2023 Map of Emery Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Emery Peak and the high plateaus of the Hi-Lo country define this landscape along the border of Colorado and New Mexico. The Dry Cimarron River winds through the southern half of the quadrangle, flanked by prominent landforms such as River Mesa and Negro Mesa. This area has long served as a vital corridor, as seen in the name of Toll Gate Canyon, which hints at historic passage through the broken terrain. Human intervention in this arid environment is evident in the Johns and Gleason North Ditch, a feature that speaks to the necessity of water management for ranching and agriculture in the high desert. The map captures a complex network of drainages including Devoys Canyon and Gleasons Canyon, all funneling toward the primary river valley below Devoys Peak.
