1939 Map of La Ventana

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Señorita and La Ventana anchor the western flats of this late 1930s landscape, where the arid drainage of the Río Puerco meets the rising timber of the Santa Fe National Forest. The geography reveals a transition from livestock ranching and small-scale mining in the valley to seasonal logging operations in the high country. Resource extraction is evident at the Luciani Mines and the San Miguel Mine, while local education is represented by scattered outposts like the Gonzalitos Sch and San Miguel Sch. In the mountains to the east, the timber economy is marked by the Ojitos Logging Camp and O'Neil Landing, supported by forest management infrastructure such as the Blue Bird Ranger Station and the Rio de las Vacas Ranger Cabin. The complex network of canyons, including San Miguel Canyon and Señorita Canyon, defines the rugged movement of water toward the Rio Puerco basin.
