2021 Map of Mesa Parada

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The high desert landscape along the border of Apache County, Arizona, and Catron County, New Mexico, is defined by the prominent Mesa Parada. This arid region relies on scattered water sources, including Gallegos Springs and seasonal drainages such as Carrizo Wash and Jarvis Wash. The terrain is deeply cut by the Cottonwood Canyon and features several man-made or natural catchments like White Tank, Tucker Tank, and Kelhinne Tank, which are essential for livestock and local wildlife. Surveyed in 2021, the map reveals a sparse network of county and local roads, such as Anazazi Rd and Catron Co Rd A001, which cross the state line. The presence of Cienega Amarilla suggests areas of seasonally wet meadow or marshland amidst the dryer draws like La Draw, highlighting the delicate hydrological balance of this borderland territory.
