1999 Map of Wallace Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Continental Divide winds across the high desert terrain of Catron County, defining a landscape of canyons and mesas at the edge of the Gila National Forest. This late 20th-century survey shows a region where water sources dictate the geography, evidenced by isolated reliable points like Big Bear Spring, Little Bear Spring, and White Rock Spring. The high-altitude topography is anchored by Wallace Mesa and the northern reaches of the Mangas Mountains, while natural corridors like Greens Gap provide passage through the upland ridges. Settled life is marked by the presence of Collinsville and the Greens Gap Cemetery, while industrial activity is noted by a Drill Hole and the Nance Windmill. The map details a transition from the volcanic peaks of Little Alegres Mountain to the deeply carved drainage systems of Chavez Canyon and Nester Draw.
