1995 Map of Indian Spring Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

The Alamo Band Indian Reservation and Cibola National Forest define this landscape in Socorro County, where high desert ranching and mining shaped the 1990s terrain. Remote outposts like Thomas Canada Ranch, Fretoso Ranch, and Hook Ranch are primary landmarks in a region defined by complex drainage systems, including Indian Canyon and Maverick Canyon. The importance of water in this arid environment is evident in the numerous improved sources such as Montoya Spring, Abbe Spring, and the Section 31 Well. The presence of the Hot Spot Mines and several isolated wells, such as the Middle Well near the New Mexico Base Line, indicates a landscape utilized for both mineral extraction and livestock grazing. This survey provides a look at the land use patterns within the reservation and forest boundaries before more recent ecological and cultural shifts.
