1995 Map of Mesa Cencerro

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

The Bear Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Socorro County, where water is the primary driver of human settlement and infrastructure. Scattered ranching outposts such as Chavez Ranch and Spears Ranch represent the historic pastoral use of these lands, which are now largely managed as part of the Cibola National Forest. The map reveals a complex network of springs, troughs, and tanks necessary for survival in the arid terrain, including the uniquely named Lumber House Spring No 1 and Lumber House Spring No 2, as well as the Cement Trough Spring.
