1995 Map of Granite Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Cibola National Forest dominates this mid-1990s survey, defined by the prominent peak of Granite Mountain and the complex drainage of Bear Springs Canyon. The map reveals a landscape heavily shaped by small-scale mineral exploration, with numerous Prospects scattered across the higher elevations. This geological focus is paired with signs of isolated human activity, such as a remote Landing Strip and a Cem in the southern sector. Water remains a critical element of the high desert environment, marked by localized sources like Bird Spring, Goat Spring, and a designated Water Tank. These features, along with the course of La Jencia Creek, suggest a region where land use was primarily centered on ranching, resource assessment, and forest management rather than permanent settlement.
