2004 Map of Firman Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2006

About this map

Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation land and the Lincoln National Forest meet in this 2004 revision of the Otero County landscape. The terrain is defined by a dense network of high-elevation canyons and vital water sources, including the central artery of Tularosa Creek and its South Fork Tularosa Canyon. Notable landmarks such as Shields Dam and the Red Cabin provide specific points of interest for local historians, while the map records numerous named water features essential for life in this arid environment, from the Head Springs in the north to Silver Springs and Turkey Pen Spring in the south. The area is crisscrossed by established forest routes, including Route 10 and Route 47, which connect the various drainages and springs like Firman Spring and Cienega Spring. This survey illustrates the intricate drainage patterns and remote outposts within the reservation boundaries prior to mid-2000s changes.
