About this map

Ventana Ridge and the volcanic expanses of The Malpais dominate this mid-century New Mexico landscape, illustrating the geological complexity of the Zuni-Bandera volcanic field. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad follows the course of the Rio San Jose through the northern corridor, a path mirrored by an Old Railroad Grade and modern infrastructure like a Pipeline and Telephone lines. These transport routes skirt the lava-choked valleys of La Vega and the sandy stretches of El Medano.
