2010 Map of Cerro De La Olla

About this map

Mcgreggor Place sits within a high-elevation landscape in Taos County, defined by its isolation and the winding path of Arroyo Punche. This part of the Taos Plateau showcases a transition from volcanic features to the open range, where the prominent landmark of Cerro de la Olla rises above the surrounding terrain. The sparse human footprint on this 2010 survey emphasizes land use dedicated to ranching and wildlife management, as evidenced by the Mcgreggor Antelope Guzzler in the northern portion of the quadrangle. Other volcanic landforms like Cerrito Negro dot the southern reaches, marking the geological character of the region. The map reveals a network of local roads and unimproved tracks that connect these distant points across a high-desert environment that has seen little intensive development.
