1952 Map of Paxton Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Paxton Springs sits at the heart of this mid-century survey, positioned within the high-altitude terrain of the Cibola National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the massive presence of the Zuni Mountains, where the Continental Divide winds across the southwestern portion of the sheet. Volcanic activity has left a distinct mark on the geography, with broad fields of lava flowing through the canyons and multiple Cinder Pits indicating local extraction of volcanic materials. The map reveals a complex network of canyons, including La Jara Canyon and Capulin Canyon, which drain the surrounding highlands toward the lower mesas.
