1973 Map of Peach Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Peach Canyon Spring and Bull Tank Spring serve as critical water points in this arid stretch of eastern New Mexico where the high plains break into a network of steep escarpments. The landscape is defined by the convergence of Quay, De Baca, and Roosevelt counties, a remote ranching region marked by seasonal watercourses like Peach Canyon, Cottonwood Canyon, and the winding Sand Creek. Cultural details are sparse but significant, revealing a solitary Grave on the northern plateau and various evidence of resource extraction, including a Gravel Pit and scattered Drill Hole sites. The survey illustrates the stark transition between the flat upland mesas and the eroded breaks, where property and land use are guided by the availability of water at isolated wells and springs.
