1965 Map of Cerro Vista

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Carson National Forest dominates this mid-1960s landscape, where the Rancho del Rio Grande Grant Boundary marks a historical division in the high country of northern New Mexico. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks such as Cerro Vista and Cerro Olla, with the Rio Grande del Rancho carving a path through the northwest. Small mountain settlements like Chacon and Bilbao sit on the periphery of the deep timber, connected by a network of primitive routes labeled simply as Jeep Trail and Pack Trail. High-elevation water features including Romero Lake and La Cueva Lake are situated near Upper La Junta Campground, indicating the area's role for seasonal recreation and grazing. The presence of the Taos Co Mora Co line cutting across the eastern ridges highlights the administrative geography of this remote territory.
