1961 Map of Mesa Cortada

About this map

Cibola National Forest encompasses the high country of this Northwestern New Mexico landscape, characterized by dramatic plateaus and deeply cut arroyos. The map reveals a land of intermittent water sources and traditional ranching, where remote sites like Rancho de la Punta and Michael Ranch suggest the historical human footprint in an arid environment. Navigating the terrain relies on named tanks and springs, such as Gonzolas Tank and Ojo Navajo, which provided essential water for livestock and travel.
