2023 Map of Cedar Hill

About this map

The Animas River valley serves as the central artery for this part of San Juan County, New Mexico, where a sophisticated network of irrigation channels supports the local landscape. Engineered waterways like Stacy Ditch, Sargent Ditch, and the Graves Atterberry Ditch branch off the river to hydrate the valley floor. The settlement of Cedar Hill is established at the base of Bushelberger Mesa, serving as a focal point for the region's historical and genealogical record with both the Old Cedar Hill Cem and the newer Cedar Hill Cem located nearby. To the south, the small community of Inca sits near Center Point, illustrating the clustered nature of development along the primary water source. The surrounding high country is defined by dramatic geological features such as Lone Tree Mountain and the Cox Canyon Arch, with numerous drainage systems like Kiffen Canyon and Bohanan Canyon carving into the mesas.
