2023 Map of Kettner Canyon

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through the high terrain of the Zuñi Mountains in this modern survey of the western New Mexico high country. Located within the Cibola National Forest, the landscape is defined by deep drainage systems such as Kettner Canyon and Muerto Canyon, alongside significant topographical breaks like Big Notch and Little Notch. The network of forestry access includes Forest Rd 50 and specialized routes like Motorized 308 Trl. Water sources are critical landmarks in this environment, with locations like Camp Two Spring, Wells Spring, and Muerto Spring providing necessary relief. High-altitude meadows or "parks," including Rice Park and Dinner Park, provide clearings among the forested slopes of Oso Ridge and the Lookout Mountain Rim.
