1990 Map of La Mesita Negra

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

The Rio Puerco meanders through the heart of this Bernalillo County landscape, serving as a vital geographical anchor between the Cañoncito Navajo Indian Reservation to the north and the Laguna Indian Reservation to the south. The terrain is defined by dramatic volcanic and sedimentary formations, including the prominent volcanic plug of La Mesita Negra and the high elevation of Cerro Colorado. The map documents a complex system of land grants and administrative boundaries, such as the Town of Atrisco Grant Boundary and the Pajarito grant line, which intersect with traditional tribal lands.
