2023 Map of McCartys

About this map

McCartys Village and the nearby Anzac Village sit within a landscape defined by the drainage of the Rio San Jose and the massive plateaus of Horace Mesa and McCarty Mesa. This area of Cibola County is characterized by significant topographic relief, where the water from Acomita Lake and several springs, including Conejo Spring and Canipa Spring, support a network of small settlements and transportation corridors. The historical HST Rte 66 and contemporary interstate infrastructure navigate these mesas, following the natural paths carved by features like Tafoya Canyon and Cañon Largo. For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for the Mount of Peace Cem and the residential layout of Skyline-Ganipa, offering a modern perspective on traditional land use and habitation patterns in this part of New Mexico.
