About this map

Apache National Forest dominates this landscape in the early 1990s, where high-elevation meadows and cienegas define the drainage patterns of the White Mountains. The small settlement of Hannagan Meadow serves as a central point of activity, accompanied by the nearby Hannagan FS Station and Hannagan Campground. This area is characterized by its numerous cienegas—marshy mountain meadows—such as Lost Cienega, Deep Cienega, and Horseshoe Cienega, which filter water into the headwaters of the Black River and Beaver Creek.

Evidence of local habitation and land management is visible through labels like Balke Cabin and the northern settlement of Sprucedale. The map illustrates the boundary between Greenlee and Apache counties, cutting through a network of canyons including Hawks Nest Canyon and Johns Canyon. Local utility infrastructure is noted by a Trans Line that traverses the forest, while specialized aviation support is marked at the local Heliports.
