Jemez River flows southward through the high-desert terrain of Sandoval County, anchoring a landscape defined by ancestral lands and sophisticated water management. This 1969 field-checked survey highlights the complex irrigation networks of the area, featuring the West Side Canal, East Side Canal, and Anthony Recos Ditch that support the ancient settlements of Jemez Pueblo and Zia Pueblo. The topography transitions from the high elevations of Borrego Mesa and Chamisa Mesa down to the valley floor, where modern utilities like a Substation and Sewage Disposal Pond sit alongside traditional landmarks such as Ojo Chamisa. The map meticulously delineates the overlapping boundaries of the Santa Fe National Forest and three sovereign nations: the Jemez Pueblo Indian Reservation, Zia Indian Reservation, and Santa Ana Indian Reservation.
