About this map

Goat Spring stands as a vital water source in this high-elevation corner of Catron County, where the high desert terrain is defined by complex drainage networks and volcanic remnants. The landscape is characterized by prominent landforms such as Red Hill and the deep incisions of Lard Cyn, which channel seasonal runoff toward larger systems like Mayes Wash and Agua Fria Creek.

A network of county and local roads, including Co Rd A001 and Junction Well Rd, provides access across the township lines of the Gila and Salt River Meridian. These paths trace the contours of the Red Hill Draw, reflecting a rural infrastructure built around the geography of the high plains. The map records a contemporary view of this sparsely populated ranching country, capturing the precise locations of named washes and local landmarks used for navigation in a territory shaped by its arid climate.
