1981 Map of Pena Blanca Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Coronado National Forest dominates this arid landscape of the Atascosa Mountains and Pajarito Mountains, centered on the recreational and utility hub of Peña Blanca Lake. The lake area is detailed with its Boat Ramp, Red Rock Picnic Area, and a Sewage Pond, indicating its role as a managed park site. Beyond the water, the map reveals a rugged terrain defined by cattle tanks and springs essential for ranching and wildlife, such as Mesa Side Tank and Waterfall Spring. Mining activity is recorded at the Morning Mine and St Patrick Mine in the southern hills, while a solitary Airstrip and a Patio Facility appear near the Luis Maria Baca Float No 3 grant boundary. The network of 4wd tracks and pipelines highlights the sparse but functional human presence across the canyons of Peña Blanca Lake.
