2023 Map of Steel Hill

About this map

Apache Kid Wilderness and Cibola National Forest define this high-altitude landscape in Socorro County, where the terrain is dominated by the namesake Steel Hill. The map documents a critical network of water sources essential for survival and livestock in this arid environment, ranging from Rabbit Eye Spring and Pine Tree Spring to man-made catchments like Steel Tank and Cuervo Tank. Movement through the backcountry is primarily facilitated by the Indian Creek Trl, which follows the drainage of Indian Creek. The geography is deeply carved by numerous canyons, including Springtime Canyon, Chaunte Canyon, and Nogal Canyon. These features, alongside landmarks such as Cerra de las Cabras and the elevated Bell Hill, illustrate a landscape managed for both federal conservation and local ranching interests.
