2023 Map of El Vado

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Rio Chama waters dominate this Rio Arriba County landscape, flowing south from the El Vado Reservoir through the steep-walled Chama Canyon. The settlement of El Vado sits near the dam, providing a focal point for the region's managed water resources. South of the reservoir, the river is protected as the Rio Chama Wild and Scenic River, where it enters the northern reaches of the Santa Fe National Forest. This modern survey illustrates the complex drainage system of the High Desert, including seasonal watercourses like Arroyo del Puerto Chiquito and Cooper Arroyo. The map also traces the winding path of Rio Nutrias as it cuts through Nutrias Canyon, joining the primary river system amidst a network of local roads such as Truchas Dr and Pajarito Rd.
