2023 Map of Mule Creek

About this map

The settlement of Mule Creek serves as the focal point for this high-desert landscape in Grant County, New Mexico. Located near the Arizona border, the area is defined by its complex network of seasonal water sources and canyons, including Mule Spring and the deep cuts of Boiling Canyon and Walnut Canyon. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the Mule Mountains, while the central and southern reaches are protected within the Gila National Forest. This modern survey illustrates a landscape heavily utilized for livestock, evidenced by the numerous named water tanks such as Hardluck Tank, Boiling Tank, and Racetrack Tank. The presence of the Mule Creek Cem near the townsite provides a vital anchor for genealogists tracing local families in this ranching region. To the south, Sunflower Mesa and Brushy Mtn rise above the drainage of Pine Cienega Creek, showing the transition into more forested high-elevation terrain.
