1963 Map of Negrito Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Gila National Forest terrain dominates this 1963 survey, where a network of remote canyons and high-altitude ridges defines the landscape of Catron County. The map captures the specialized infrastructure of forest management and early recreation, centered around the Willow Creek Guard Station and the nearby Willow Creek Lodge. Water management is prominent in this arid environment, evidenced by numerous livestock tanks such as Negrito Pasture Tank and Dark Canyon Tank, alongside natural features like the Burnt Cabin Cienega. High-country landmarks including Negrito Mountain and the Lookout Tower overlooking Quaking Aspen Creek provide orientation points for this backcountry region. The map also documents established trails like the Whitewater Baldy Trail and the Mc Kenzie Trail, which served as vital corridors for rangers and early mountain travelers.
