1987 Map of Skull Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Coronado National Forest dominates the eastern landscape of this arid borderlands region, where the terrain rises sharply from the basin floor into the jagged heights of Skull Canyon. Water management is the primary signature of human activity in this corner of the Peloncillo Mountains, evidenced by numerous man-made catchments like Kimble Tank, Bower Tank, and Allen Tank. These features, alongside Natural Tanks, underscore the vital importance of livestock ranching and water security in a territory defined by seasonal drainages such as Deer Creek and Owl Creek.
