1953 Map of Jarosa

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The San Pedro Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape within the Santa Fe National Forest, where steep canyons and flat-topped mesas define the terrain. In the early 1950s, this area of Rio Arriba remained a rugged domain of forest service sites and water resources, featuring the Rio Puerco Campground and various springs like the one near Branch Tank. The presence of Mining Mountain and isolated Mine symbols suggests a history of mineral prospecting in the highlands, while landmarks such as Teakettle Rock and Cerro Jarocito provide distinct navigational points. Several drainages including Rito Puerco and Rito de las Vacas carve through the land, alongside named clearings and flats like Rincon de Jaques and Vega Cochina, which likely served as seasonal grazing grounds.
