2023 Map of Lapis Point

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Lapis Point and the surrounding high-desert terrain of Rio Arriba County define this landscape, where deep drainages like Las Norias Canyon cut through a series of elevated mesas. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates the complex topography of the Jicarilla Apache region, characterized by the winding path of Tapicito Creek in the northern reaches and the distinct prominence of B S Mesa. The area's verticality is punctuated by landmarks such as Eagles Nest and Wild Horse Mesa, which reflect the remote and undeveloped nature of this part of New Mexico. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid, documenting the boundaries of townships such as t26n r5w and t25n r4w in a region where natural landforms dictate the few available routes and human footprints.
