About this map

Gila National Forest encompasses the high-elevation terrain of the Pinos Altos Range in this modern topographic study of Grant County. The settlement of Redstone serves as a small human footprint in a landscape defined by significant peaks and ridges, including Signal Peak, Scott Peak, and Black Peak. The physical geography is marked by the Continental Divide, which winds through the center of the sheet, followed closely by the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail. This alignment shows how modern recreational infrastructure adheres to the natural spine of the American West. Water sources like McMillan Spring and Allie Spring provide critical points of interest in a region drained by Bear Cr and Cherry Cr. Numerous canyons, such as Bear Canyon and Skates Canyon, cut through the high country, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Gila wilderness.
