1964 Map of Madre Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Madre Mountain and the Sawtooth Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape within the Cibola National Forest, where the terrain is defined by complex drainage systems and isolated peaks. Surveyed in the early 1960s, the map reveals a rugged backcountry where water sources were the primary anchor for activity. Features like Lavender Well, Little Tom Well, and Gooseberry Spring dot the canyons, while the Davenport Lookout Tower occupies a commanding height over the Datil Mountains. The presence of Webster Cabin and Webster Tanks in the northeast suggests a history of localized ranching or forest management. To the south, White House Canyon and West Pass provide natural corridors through the peaks. This topographical record provides a clear view of the wilderness infrastructure of the era, from the established Base Line to the sparse Jeep Trails and scattered landmarks like Monument Rock.
