2023 Map of Nichols Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The Gila River winds through the heart of this landscape, carving deep relief into the borderlands of Hidalgo and Grant counties. The dramatic topography is defined by the Gila Lower Box and the steep walls of Box Canyon, showcasing a classic Southwestern river corridor before it exits toward the high desert. Settlement evidence is sparse, represented by ranching infrastructure like Brown Ranch Rd and several water catchments including Mesa Tank and Tank Number Two. Numerous named drainages, such as Davenport Canyon and L C Canyon, feed into the river system from the surrounding highlands. Notable landmarks like Black Mountain and Redrock Mesa provide significant vertical context to the area, while Nichols Spring and Seep Spring Draw mark rare water sources in the arid terrain.
