1963 Map of Espinosa Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Espinosa Ranch sits at the heart of this high-elevation terrain in Rio Arriba County, where the topography of the Carson National Forest is defined by a series of prominent plateaus and deep drainage networks. The landscape is dominated by the massive Cabresto Mesa and Mesteñas Mesa, with Mesteñas Peak rising as a local landmark. A complex system of canyons, including Cabresto Canyon, La Jara Canyon, and American Canyon, carves through the mesa land, indicating a rugged environment where water management was essential. Numerous water features such as Laguna Seca, Manuel Spring, and various stock tanks like Lion Tank and Shula Tank reflect the area's ranching heritage. By the early 1960s, the emergence of energy infrastructure is evident through a network of Gas Wells and a significant Pipeline crossing the northern territory.
