2017 Map of Hagan

About this map

Hagan and Puertecito sit within a landscape of deeply cut watercourses and arid plateaus at the edge of the Cibola National Forest. This 2017 study illustrates the complex drainage network defining the region, where the Arroyo Una de Gato and Arroyo Tonque converge near the high ground of Canon Tejon. The map captures the presence of public lands and protected areas, including the Golden Open Space, which buffer the small settlements and local family landmarks like Gonzales Canyon. Significant for genealogists and local historians, the sheet identifies the Tejon Cem and vital water sources such as San Francisco Spring and Escondido Spring, which historically dictated the pattern of human habitation and travel routes like Madera Rd and La Madera Rd through the desert terrain.
