2023 Map of Ambrosia Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Ambrosia Lake sits at the heart of this high-desert basin in McKinley County, defined by a series of prominent mesas and volcanic landmarks. The landscape is structured by vast drainage systems like the Arroyo del Puerto, while human presence is marked by scattered water improvements such as Antonio Tank and Voght Tank. On the eastern edge, the topography rises sharply toward the Cibola National Forest, where the massive profiles of San Mateo Mesa and Mesa de Ortega dominate the horizon. Named landmarks including Don Andres Hill, Julian Hill, and Punta Maestra provide specific reference points for navigating the complex terrain of the San Juan Basin. The inclusion of sites like Laguna del Monte and the spring at Ojo del Hijinio highlights the critical role of water sources in this arid environment.
