2023 Map of Maxson Crater

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Maxson Crater and the southeastern flanks of the Turkey Mountains define this high-elevation landscape in Mora County. This modern survey illustrates a rugged terrain of volcanic features and deeply incised drainages, where the topography rises sharply toward Baldy Mtn. The hydrological network is dominated by seasonal watercourses and arroyos, including Arroyo Needham and Arroyo Lyman, which cut through the tablelands. The northern portion of the map is shaped by the significant depression of Curry Canyon and the winding course of Cottonwood Creek. The absence of dense settlement and the concentration of named arroyos like Arroyo Tierra Blanca and Dog Creek highlight the arid, open character of the region, where water management and elevation have historically dictated the use of the land.
