1964 Map of Alto De Hormiga

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Alto de Hormiga and the surrounding high plains of Mora County define this 1964 landscape, where the terrain breaks sharply into deep drainage systems. The settlement of Ensinosa sits at the head of Cañada Ensinosa, overlooking a topography marked by volcanic mesas and erosion. The presence of Piedra Lumbre Ch and the winding Arroyo Piedra Lumbre south of Las Mesas del Conjelon suggests a scattered but established rural community during the mid-1960s. This survey records a transition from the level plateau surfaces down into the complex arroyo systems, capturing the isolation of these high-altitude ranching and farming lands before modern developments changed the local infrastructure. The inclusion of Gravel Pits in the southeast indicates small-scale local resource extraction that supported the area's unimproved road network.
