2023 Map of Mesita Del Gavilan

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Mesita del Gavilan rises as the central topographic feature in this arid landscape, which is defined by an intricate network of ephemeral water drainage systems and artificial stock tanks. The hydrologic pattern across this portion of McKinley County is dominated by the North Fork Arroyo Chico and the Rincon Marquez Arroyo, while smaller drainages like Arroyo Lucero and Arroyo Calladito carve through the high desert terrain. The distribution of family-named water features, such as Arroyo Alfredo Padilla, Martinez Tank, and Alvario Tank, suggests a history of grazing and ranching operations dependent on these localized water sources. Transportation is limited to rugged routes like Hospah Rd and Co Rd 19, which connect distant points across the basin. Other notable landmarks including Castle Rock Tank and Indian Pond serve as critical navigational and resource points in this open, sparsely populated region.
