1995 Map of Steel Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Apache Kid Wilderness dominates the western portion of this high-altitude landscape, where deep drainages like Springtime Canyon and Roberts Canyon carve through the rugged interior of the Cibola National Forest. The map documents a sparse, resource-driven settlement pattern characterized by isolated ranching infrastructure and mineral exploration, notably the Panky Mine and the Nogal Canyon Ranch. Evidence of water management in this arid terrain is ubiquitous, with numerous catchment points such as Humpback Tank, Silverado Spring, and the Cuervo Windmill supporting local livestock and land use. Geologic landmarks such as Steel Hill and the prominent Cerra de las Cabras define the horizon, while the First Guide Meridian West Auxiliary provides a clear surveying benchmark across the eastern plateau.
