About this map

Turkey Mountains rise in the southern portion of this region, providing a high-elevation backdrop to a landscape defined by volcanic peaks and seasonal waterways. The drainage of Gallinas Creek winds through the central territory, eventually passing near the spring at Ojo de las Gallinas. This area is characterized by several prominent volcanic buttes, including Cerro Negro, Cerro de Ore, and Cerro de Espia, which served as distinct landmarks for travelers and locals alike. To the northwest, the elevated Encinosa Mesa dominates the horizon, while the presence of Laguna Salada in the southwest highlights the intermittent water sources critical to the local ecology. The map also delineates Mclamar Canyon, illustrating the complex erosional patterns that have shaped this part of Mora County.
