2023 Map of Brazos Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Brazos Peak and the sheer Brazos Cliffs dominate this high-altitude landscape in Rio Arriba County, where the Rio Brazos carves through the southern terrain. This survey reflects a modern view of the Tusas Mountains, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of Chavez Creek and its western forks. The northern reaches are characterized by high mesas and distinct peaks, including Sugar Loaf Mtn and Grouse Mesa, alongside remote water bodies like Hidden Lake. While much of the area remains undeveloped forest and mountain land, the presence of Ticonderoga Dr and Oak Meadows Dr in the southwest suggests residential expansion creeping into the foothills. The map provides a detailed look at geological formations such as the Brazos Box and Cañones Box, where narrow canyons have been cut by seasonal and perennial streams.
