1999 Map of Squirrel Springs Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Tularosa River flows through the northern reaches of this high-altitude landscape, where the Apache National Forest meets the Gila National Forest. This 1999 revision captures a network of canyon systems and livestock watering infrastructure, including numerous named tanks like Bear Tank and Govina Canyon Tank No 8. The map documents the intricate drainage patterns of Govina Canyon, Squirrel Springs Canyon, and Five Springs Canyon, which descend from prominent heights such as Wagontongue Mountain. The presence of several named water sources, such as Upper Cold Spring and Squirrel Spring, highlights the critical importance of reliable water in this arid environment. Surveyed boundaries for the Quemado Ranger District and Reserve Ranger District provide administrative context for the public lands, while scattered 4wd routes indicate the primitive access across the canyon floors and ridges.
