1999 Map of Slaughter Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through the high country of Catron County in this 1999 revision of the Apache National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the Mangas Mountains and the broad elevation of Slaughter Mesa, a region where water management is critical for land use. The map reveals an intricate network of livestock and wildlife support, featuring numerous named tanks and pits such as Jacobs Camp Tank, Antelope Tank, and the Gooseberry Pit. The drainage patterns are clear, with Largo Creek and Antone Creek cutting through a series of canyons including Largo Canyon and Salvador Canyon. Human activity is marked by scattered infrastructure like the Cinder Pit and a web of 4wd tracks and forest roads that provide access to remote springs like Lotus Camp Spring and El Caso Spring.
