1983 Map of Las Nutrias

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Tierra Amarilla Grant Boundary lines define much of this Northern New Mexico landscape, marking the historic land grant divisions that still shaped property and movement in the early 1980s. The settlement of Las Nutrias serves as a focal point along the Rio Nutrias, while the smaller namesake Nutrias sits to the west. This territory is characterized by a series of long, narrow drainages known as cañadas, including Cañada del Policarpo and Cañada del Humo, which indicate how water and geography dictated the layout of local ranching and travel routes. In the southeast corner, the flow of the Rio Cebolla meets the drainage of Cañada de la Lagunita near a designated Roadside Park, illustrating the mix of traditional land use and modern transit infrastructure in Rio Arriba County.
