2023 Map of Canada Calladita

About this map

Arroyo Chico and Cañada Calladita carve through this high-desert landscape on the border of McKinley and Sandoval Counties. This modern survey illustrates the critical role of water management in a dry environment, documented through a dense network of specialized catchment points such as Cholla Tank, Sand Column Tank, and Rattlesnake Tank. These features represent the essential infrastructure for ranching and land use in the region. Transportation is defined by the Rincon Marquez Rd and Navajo Svc Rte 7004, providing access to the various canyons like Cañon Ignacio Rico and the drainage systems of Torreon Wash. The geography is further detailed by the convergence of several arroyos, including Arroyo Gallina and Arroyo Seccion, which shape the local drainage patterns near Cañoncito.
