The Magdalena Historic District serves as a focal point in this high-desert landscape, anchored by the village of Magdalena along Us-60. To the south, the terrain rises sharply into the Magdalena Mountains, where a network of steep drainages like Patterson Canyon and Hop Canyon carve through the Cibola National Forest. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring footprint of human activity in the region, from the settlement of Kelly to remote outposts such as Hardscrabble Camp and Frenchies Cabin.
