1999 Map of Kingston

About this map

Kingston serves as the focal point of this terrain, situated at the confluence of the Mimbres Mountains and the drainage systems of Middle Percha Creek and its many tributaries. The area's mining legacy is evident through numerous Prospects and named operations like the Gray Eagle Mine, illustrating the intense mineral exploration that characterized this section of the Gila National Forest. Beyond industrial markings, the settlement includes a local Cem, an Athletic Field, and the Kingston Work Center, which includes a dedicated Heliport. The eastern slopes of the range are deeply incised by canyons such as Sawpit Canyon and Dumm Canyon, while the western edge transitions into the protected Aldo Leopold Wilderness. This 1990s revision reveals a landscape where historical mining activity and modern forest management infrastructure exist alongside landmarks like the Wind Charger Communication Tower.
