2004 Map of Surveyors Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2006

About this map

The Fort Bliss Military Reservation (McGregor Range) occupies the southern half of this landscape, marking a sharp transition between federal military territory and the protected lands of the Lincoln National Forest to the north. This 2004 revision reveals a terrain defined by complex drainage systems, where the Sacramento River and Surveyors Canyon carve through the high country. For the local historian or surveyor, the map provides a precise look at the network of livestock tanks and water catchments vital to this arid environment, including Ben Williams Tank, Kimmons Tank, and Crest Garden Tank. The presence of named landmarks like Chatfield Peak and Stevens Lake among the varied canyons of East McAfee Canyon and Wayland Canyon offers a clear view of the geographic naming conventions used by the USDA Forest Service and military cartographers at the start of the 21st century.
