2001 Map of La Jara Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2005

About this map

La Jara State Wildlife Area and the surrounding high-altitude drainage systems characterize this 2001 revision of the Conejos County landscape. The area is defined by the carved paths of La Jara Canyon and Jadero Canyon, which descend toward the southern boundary where the Rio Grande River cuts through the terrain. Human activity is marked by specialized seasonal sites like Braiden Cow Camp and various water management features, including the La Jara Res and Bluebird Reservoir. The transition from the open expanses of Big Meadows to the concentrated waters of Chicago Bogs and La Grulla Lake illustrates a complex watershed managed by both the state and the Rio Grande National Forest. This map provides a detailed look at the 4WD trails and forest routes that connect these remote canyons and mesas at the start of the twenty-first century.
