About this map

Angel Fire and the high peaks of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains define this high-altitude landscape in the southern Rockies. The settlement pattern shows a modern mountain resort community organized around winding roads such as Enchanted Way and El Camino Real, while specialized overlooks like Cascade Overlook and Cieneguilla Overlook suggest the priority given to the surrounding vistas. North of the town, the prominent Agua Fria Peak serves as a topographical anchor.

Moving south toward the Colfax Co Mora Co boundary, the terrain becomes more isolated, transitioning into a series of deep canyons and ridges. Features like LeFebres Canyon and Guadalupita Canyon cut through the high plateau. The presence of smaller water bodies such as Horse Shoe Lake and Horse Lake, alongside drainage systems like Cieneguilla Cr and Little Coyote Cr, illustrate the complex hydrology that feeds the valley below.
