USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The high canyons and ridges of the Cibola National Forest define this 1964 survey of the Socorro County landscape. The area is characterized by a series of named water catchment tanks, such as Rock Spring Tank and Antelope Tank, which highlight the importance of water management in this arid environment. The terrain rises to notable peaks like Welty Hill and the Sim Yaten Hills, while the drainage system is a complex network of canyons and draws. Significant among these are Red John Box Canyon and the deep Sim Yaten Canyon. The map reveals a land utilized for its natural resources and range, marked by features such as Drill Draw and the various stock tanks that supported local ranching or wildlife management in the mid-1960s.
