About this map

Santa Fe National Forest encompasses the entirety of this high-elevation landscape, where the San Pedro Mountains and Mining Mtn dominate the western horizon. The area's complex water management is evident in the numerous stock tanks and trick tanks, such as Jarosito Trick Tank and Mesa Ojitos Trick Tank, which support the high-country ecology. Significant landforms like Teakettle Rock and the deep Guardia Canyon provide distinctive landmarks for navigation and local history.

Transportation through these wooded heights relies on a network of US Forest Service routes including Forest Rd 93 and Forest Rd 103. The map detail captures the intersection of historical grazing lands and modern conservation, marking everything from Rincon de Jaques to the various springs like Bonito Spring and Poleo Cr Rincon Spring that have long dictated the utility of this mountainous terrain.
