About this map

The Mora River carves through this high-altitude landscape along the border of Mora and San Miguel counties. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including the namesake Cañon Ancho and Mexican Canyon. Human activity is primarily limited to rural infrastructure, with State Hwy 271 crossing the northern reaches and Co Rd 32 Canyon Ancho providing access to the interior. The map reveals the intersection of Spanish-named land features like Cañon Escondido and Cañon Vegocito with standard American survey parcels. Water is the primary architect of the region, visible in the winding paths of Chavez Creek, Tata Vique, and Wilcox Draw, which have historically dictated travel and ranching boundaries in this part of northern New Mexico.
