2023 Map of Squirrel Springs Canyon

About this map

Aragon and the smaller settlement of Apache Creek anchor the northern reaches of this New Mexico landscape, situated at the confluence of the Tularosa River and several deep canyon systems. The terrain is defined by its transition between the Apache National Forest and Gila National Forest, featuring the prominent height of Wagontongue Mtn in the northeast. This 2023 survey illustrates a high-desert environment where water management is critical, evidenced by an extensive network of tanks and springs including Sand Canyon Tank, Mesa Tank, and Squirrel Spring. These water sources, combined with primitive roads like Forest Rd 289 and Forest Rd 94, reflect a landscape managed for ranching and forest service operations. The map details a complex drainage system through North Sand Canyon, Cold Springs Canyon, and the primary Squirrel Springs Canyon that carves through the local topography.
