About this map

The Mimbres River valley forms the central corridor of this late-twentieth-century study, where agricultural and community life concentrate along the river's path. In San Lorenzo, the landscape includes community infrastructure like an Airstrip, an Athletic Field, and a Substation, while further downstream, the settlement of San Juan utilizes a Siphon and Ditch system for irrigation.

Upland terrain is dominated by the Gila National Forest, marked by numerous drainage features such as Georgetown Canyon and Noonday Canyon. Evidence of land use and local industry appears in the form of scattered Prospects and water management features like Brunner Tank and Bath Tank. The mapping captures the intersection of forest lands and rural development, including a local Cem and a Baseball Field that anchor the social geography of the valley.
