1995 Map of Grassy Lookout

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

San Mateo Mountains dominate the landscape in this central New Mexico survey, which reflects the complex overlay of conservation and industry in the late twentieth century. The map centers on the high-altitude terrain of the Cibola National Forest and the protected Withington Wilderness. A significant industrial footprint is visible at the Rosedale Mine and Bell Mine, where features such as Tailings and a Cyanide Tank suggest a history of precious metal extraction. The presence of Grassy Lookout and several water management points like Park Well and Lake Spring indicate the essential infrastructure required for forest management and livestock in this arid environment. Traces of early surveying remain in the alignment of the First Standard Parallel South, cutting across a network of canyons including Potato Canyon and Big Rosa Canyon.
