The Vermejo River carves through the high terrain of Colfax County, joined by a complex network of seasonal drainages including Van Bremmer Cr and Cerrososo Cr. This high-elevation landscape is defined by its numerous named canyons, which often carry the names of early settlers and ranching families. Significant landmarks like Juan Baca Canyon, Griffin Canyon, and York Canyon suggest the local history of land use in this part of New Mexico.
