2023 Map of Tularosa Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Aragon sits at the southwestern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where the administrative boundaries of the Apache National Forest and Gila National Forest meet. The terrain is defined by a complex network of canyons and mesas, most notably the deep cut of Tularosa Canyon and the sweeping Sand Flats. This area is part of the Great Divide, with the Continental Divide National Scenic Trl winding through the center of the sheet, tracing the backbone of the continent. The reliance on water management in this arid environment is evident through the numerous named catchment features such as GC Number Six Tank, Rock Tank, and Willow Tank. These small reservoirs, along with natural water sources like Celso Spring and Lopez Spring, represent the vital infrastructure for ranching and forest management in a region where seasonal runoff through Indio Canyon and Sand Flat Canyon provides the primary moisture.
