About this map

Nogales Cliff House stands as a significant cultural landmark in this high-desert landscape, highlighting the archaeological depth of the region. The map reveals a network of canyons and drainages, including the prominent Cañada Ojitos and Horse Heaven Canyon, which carve through the terrain. Human activity is marked by rural outposts like Syphers Ranch and Collins Ranch, alongside industrial traces such as the Young Prospect. The presence of naming conventions like Cañoncito de las Lleguas and Canada Jose reflects a deeply rooted regional heritage. Local water features, including Laguna Simon and Laguna Seca, suggest the seasonal hydrology essential for ranching and settlement in this part of Rio Arriba County. This 2011 survey records the road network of the era, from Co RD 383 to various forest routes, providing a detailed view of the modern infrastructure overlaid on a traditional landscape.
