1963 Map of Leavry Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Jicarilla Apache Indian Reservation dominates the southern landscape of this mid-1960s survey, defined by the Jicarilla Apache Indian Reservation Boundary. The terrain is shaped by the presence of the Continental Divide cutting through the northeast corner, influencing the drainage patterns of Tapicito Creek and the deep seasonal channels of Arroyo Compañero. Natural and man-made water sources are vital in this high-desert environment, including Bassett Spring, Garambulla Well, and Red Lake. Evidence of mid-century industrial activity is scattered across the township lines in the form of several Gas Well and Drill Hole sites. The central geography is marked by the prominent Tapicito Ridge and the Leavry Canyon system, which contains both the Lower Leavry Pond and Upper Leavry Pond, highlighting the area's complex water management and natural topography during this era of resource exploration.
