2023 Map of Canjilon SE

About this map

Carson National Forest encompasses the high desert and canyon country of Rio Arriba County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages and springs. The settlement of El Puertecito sits at the southwestern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a rare point of human habitation in this complex terrain. Notable high points like the volcanic Sierra Negra and the distinctive Cerrito de la Ventana rise above the surrounding mesas, while numerous springs, or ojitos, such as Ojito Soldado and Ojito Carrizo, suggest the critical importance of water management in this arid environment. The map details an extensive system of forest roads and tracks that navigate through major drainages like Comanche Canyon and the Cañon de Cobre, illustrating how land use in the northern New Mexico high country is tied to the management of these public lands and the preservation of historic water sources.
