1967 Map of Wall Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Wall Lake serves as a central hydrological landmark in this high-altitude section of the Gila National Forest, where the complex drainage systems of the Mogollon Mountains converge. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by water and ranching, with the East Fork Gila River and several branches of Diamond Creek carving deep canyons through the volcanic terrain. Long-established cattle operations are documented by the presence of the DD Ranch, Steeple U Ranch, and Link Ranch, alongside numerous livestock watering features like Undertaker Tank and Knife Tank. Human activity is further evidenced by a small Mine and scattered prospects near Whitewater Creek, reflecting the mineral exploration that often accompanied early homesteading in Catron County. Significant relief is shown across Kemp Mesa and through the labyrinthine passages of Whitetail Canyon.
