1961 Map of Laguna Canoneros

About this map

The high mesa country and volcanic peaks of the Cebolleta region dominate this landscape, which is defined by an intricate network of seasonal water sources and isolated camps. The map traces the winding course of Seboyeta Creek and Seboyetita Creek as they cut through the terrain south of the Cibola National Forest. This area in the early 1960s was largely defined by ranching and resource management, evidenced by numerous named water features like Laguna del Padre and John Nelson Tank that supported the remote settlements of Casa Fria, Cuate Camp, and Cañoneros Camp. Prominent landmarks such as Cerro Chivato and Cerro Redondo provide vertical relief against the broad plateaus, while the Grant Boundary and the line between McKinley and Valencia counties bisect the quadrangle, marking the legal divisions of this high-altitude territory.
