2020 Map of Zuni Salt Lake
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Zuñi Salt Lake dominates the high desert landscape of Catron County, serving as a geographic and cultural anchor for the Salt Lake settlement. This arid region is defined by a complex network of ephemeral water sources and drainage systems, including Lunas Lake, Chical Lake, and the drainage of Largo Cr. The presence of numerous livestock watering points such as Ikes Tank and Rock Chimney Tank speaks to the long-standing ranching history of the area. Terrain features like Mesita Blanca and the steep descent of Cottonwood Canyon illustrate the geological character of this part of New Mexico. Industrial activity is represented by the Richey Pit near the western boundary, while the sparse road network, including McKinley Ranch Rd, connects these isolated desert features.
