About this map

The Santa Fe National Forest dominates this section of the Jemez Mountains in Sandoval County, where a complex network of high mesas and deep canyons reveals a landscape shaped by volcanic activity. Notable landforms like Oaks Mesa, Horn Mesa, and Cochiti Mesa are dissected by drainage systems including Medio Dia Canyon and Bland Canyon. The area includes the distinctive geological formations of Tent Rocks, a prominent landmark near the southern forest boundary.

Outdoor recreation and historical access are recorded through the Veterans Memorial Loop Trail and the Cave Loop National Rec Trail. Water sources are sparse but significant, with the Rio Chiquito flowing through the eastern reaches. The map also traces high points such as Bearhead Peak and Cerro Balitas, providing a detailed record of this high-elevation terrain in the early twenty-first century.
