About this map

The high elevations of the Jemez Mountains dominate this 2013 landscape, where the Santa Fe National Forest encompasses deep canyons and prominent mesas. Bearhead Peak stands as a central topographic anchor, flanked by Oaks Mesa and West Mesa. The map captures a series of drainages, including Peralta Canyon and Cochiti Canyon, which cut through the high tablelands like Cochiti Mesa and Horn Mesa. Notable geological formations such as Tent Rocks are clearly marked in the southern portion of the quadrangle.

Small settlements and structures punctuate this wilderness terrain, providing evidence of local human presence. Albemarle is located in the northern reaches, while further south, Rancho Canada and Canada Cabin sit near the waters of Rio Chiquito. These points of interest, along with named ridges like Cone Ridge and peaks such as Cerro Picacho, illustrate the complex relationship between the high-altitude volcanic landscape and the scattered outposts within Sandoval County.
