2023 Map of Chromo Mountain

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through the high elevation of Rio Arriba County, marking a critical water parting where the Rio Chamita and Willow Creek systems take shape. This modern topography reveals the engineering of the Azotea Tunnel, a significant water diversion project that cuts beneath the mountainous terrain. Elevated features like Chromo Mtn and Stove Ridge dominate the northern section of the map near the New Mexico and Colorado border, while localized drainage basins such as Boyer Gulch and Tuck Canyon illustrate the complex erosion patterns of the high desert. Scattered water bodies including Beaver Lake and Las Ranas Lake provide a sharp contrast to the surrounding ridges. Along the southern edge, the alignment of highways 64 84 follows the path of the settlement at Willow Creek, showing the intersection of transit and hydrology in this borderland region.
