Gila National Forest spans this high-elevation landscape along the border of Grant and Sierra Counties, anchored by the southern reaches of the Mimbres Mountains. This territory is defined by sharp peaks and a vital network of water sources, including the isolated McMullen Spring, Berrenda Spring, and Larkins Spring. The topographic relief is marked by significant elevations such as Signal Peak, Log Cabin Peak, and the namesake P A Mtn. High-country canyons like Trujillo Canyon and Hells Canyon cut through the terrain, illustrating the complex drainage systems that feed into Berrenda Cr and Tierra Blanca Cr. This survey captures the remote character of the New Mexico wilderness, where land management and ranching history are evidenced by numerous livestock tanks like Pa Tank Number One and Jalarosa Tank.
