1953 Map of Cochiti Dam

About this map

Bandelier National Monument dominates the northern reaches of this landscape, where the high mesa is carved by a succession of deep drainages including Capulin Canyon, Hondo Canyon, and Alamo Canyon. The map reveals a high density of ancestral sites, specifically marking numerous Pueblo Ruins and the notable San Miguel Ruin west of the Rio Grande. This era of mapping precedes the large-scale inundation of the river valley, showing the original course of the water and the early positioning of Cochiti Dam.
