2011 Map of Cedar Canyon

About this map

Stone Lake Lodge sits as a primary point of interest in this high-altitude landscape of northern New Mexico, marking a hub of activity near the waters of Stone Lake. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems, including the deep cuts of Telephone Canyon and Cedar Canyon, which guide water toward several lakes and springs. To the northwest, the La Jara Lake Dam holds the waters of La Jara Lake, while the southern extent reveals the expansive basin of Stinking Lake. The presence of the Cedar Springs Lookout and the Dipping Vat Tank suggests a landscape managed for both fire observation and livestock, characteristic of the region's ranching and conservation history. Navigational access is limited primarily to unpaved routes and Stone Lake Rd, highlighting the area's isolation during the early 21st century.
