About this map

The mountain village of Sacramento anchors this survey of the high Lincoln National Forest country in the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by the canyon-cut drainage basins of the Rio Peñasco and Agua Chiquita Creek, where seasonal moisture is captured by features like the Upper Rio Peñasco Site One Dam and Curtis Canyon Dam. This area serves as a significant recreational and community hub, evidenced by several established group sites including Sivells Baptist Camp, Camp Mary White, and Camp Tall Pines.

Further east, the settlement of Weed remains a focal point for local genealogy and history, containing the Weed Post Office and Weed Cemetery. The terrain is deeply corrugated, with named landmarks like Mickison Canyon, Denny Hill, and Greasy Canyon providing a detailed view of the regional geography. Forest management and fire safety are represented by the Weed Lookout Tower, situated on a ridge overlooking the vast network of forest roads such as Bear Canyon Rd and Curtis Canyon Rd.
