Carson National Forest defines this high-altitude landscape where the Sangre de Cristo Mountains meet the Santa Fe Mountains. The map documents a critical hydrologic interface, showing the Sierra Ditch and numerous water sources like Sulphur Spring and the headwaters of the Rio Grande del Rancho. The transition from the rugged peaks of Cerro Vista and Cerro Olla down to the settlement of Chacon on the eastern edge illustrates the classic New Mexican pattern of mountain-fed valley life.
