2014 Map of Mesa Parada

About this map

Mesa Parada rises as a central landmark in this high-desert region straddling the border of Arizona and New Mexico. The landscape is defined by its drainages and water sources, from the winding path of Cienega Amarilla to the seasonal courses of Carrizo Wash and Jarvis Wash. Evidence of ranching and land management appears through scattered infrastructure such as White Tank, Tucker Tank, and Kelhhne Tank, alongside named points like Gallegos Springs. The topography is etched by Cottonwood Canyon and the low-lying basin of La Draw, illustrating the complex erosion patterns of the Colorado Plateau. A network of local routes, including CO Road 6002 and CR-6003, provides access across the township lines of the Apache and Catron county lines.
