1999 Map of Milligan Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Gila National Forest lands dominate this high-country survey of western New Mexico, revealing a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and essential water resources. The terrain is anchored by the Tularosa Mountains in the east, peaking at Milligan Mountain, while the Tularosa River and Negrito Creek carve deep drainage patterns through the canyons. Notable for its network of water management features, the map tracks livestock tanks such as Polk Mesa Tank No 1 and Frisco Plaza No 5 Tank, which supported ranching in this arid environment. Significant natural water sources like Largo Springs, Kimball Spring, and Willow Spring are also identified, serving as critical landmarks in a region marked by steep-sided landforms like Flat Top Mesa and Jon S Mountain. This 1990s revision provides a clear record of the complex topography and resource distribution prior to the turn of the millennium.
