2011 Map of Cordova Canyon

About this map

Cordova Canyon and La Jara Canyon carve through this high northern New Mexico landscape in Rio Arriba County. The drainage network is defined by La Jara Creek and Boulder Creek, which feed several named upland water bodies including Luna Lake, Enbom Lake, and Lower Mundo. This modern survey documents the contemporary hydrology of the region, where catchments like Muniz Pond and Atole Pond dot the terrain alongside the winding path of Stone Lake Rd. The map illustrates the characteristic canyon-and-creek topography of the area, showing how seasonal water courses like Soldier Canyon and Burns Canyon navigate the local elevations before joining the larger creek systems that define this part of the state.
