1964 Map of Mesa Cencerro

About this map

Cibola National Forest encompasses much of this high-elevation terrain, where the Bear Mountains rise sharply above complex canyon systems. The landscape is defined by its critical water sources, marked by numerous named springs such as Lumber House Spring No 1 and Lumber House Spring No 2, which likely supported the isolated ranching operations of the mid-20th century. Local landmarks like Chavez Ranch and Spears Ranch represent the sparse human presence in this arid region, while the small settlement at Sanders and the New Well site indicate the ongoing reliance on groundwater management.
