2020 Map of Winston

About this map

Winston and Chloride anchor this corner of Sierra County, reflecting a landscape defined by ranching and old mining traditions. The map reveals a sophisticated network of drainage and terrain, where Mineral Cr and Chloride Cr cut through the foothills of the Gila National Forest. Genealogy researchers can locate the Santa Niño Cem near the banks of the creek, while landmarks like Hagins Peak and Way-Up Mtn dominate the western horizon. Transportation is largely defined by rural county roads like Republic Rd and Miranda Loop, alongside the small Chloride Airport. To the south, the deep relief of Moccasin John Canyon and the threading Dines Trail suggest the transition into more isolated backcountry, where seasonal water sources like Woodhouse Spring and Monument Spring were historically critical for land use.
