1997 Map of Nelson Reservoir NE

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Apache National Forest lands dominate this high-altitude landscape, where the seasonal waters of Coyote Creek flow across the border between Apache County and Catron County. The map reveals a land managed for ranching and resource extraction in the late 20th century, indicated by numerous Water Tanks and a Corral situated near the intersection of the Arizona and New Mexico state line. To the south, the Becker Reservoir Dam controls local water flow, while several Gravel Pit and Gravel Pits sites suggest active road maintenance or local industry. This topographic study reflects the transition of the region from 1960s photogrammetry to updated 1990s planimetry, preserving the locations of essential rural infrastructure such as the solitary Water Tank sites that sustain operations in this arid borderland environment.
