1999 Map of Mangas Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Continental Divide weaves across this high-elevation landscape in western New Mexico, marking the transition between the Mangas Mountains and the surrounding high desert drainages. Within the Apache National Forest, the land is etched by a complex network of canyons, including San Antone Canyon and Killion Canyon. The area is defined by its water infrastructure, essential for land management and ranching, featuring numerous named improvements such as the Gabaldon Windmill, Mangas Tank, and Valle Tio Vinces Spring. Human presence is concentrated at the Mangas Work Center and atop Mangas Mountain, where a Lookout and Communication Site occupy the prominent peak. The map reveals the logistical realities of this remote terrain, where 4WD tracks and trails are the primary means of navigating the varied topography of Nester Draw and El Toro Canyon.
