About this map

Trementina Creek and its complex network of drainage systems define this section of San Miguel County, as documented in the early 1970s. The landscape is characterized by prominent high-altitude plateaus, including Mesa Huerfana and Mesa Huerfanita, which rise above a series of deeply etched canyons such as Cañon Olguin and Cañon Largo. Human presence in this environment is sparse, indicated primarily by a network of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails that navigate the varied elevations. Notable landforms like Banco Quemado and the presence of a single marked Grave south of Cañon Encierto suggest a history of seasonal ranching or passage through this territory. The convergence of Arroyo Huerfana and Arroyo Hondo in the southern reaches highlights the drainage patterns essential to the local topography.
