About this map

Tapicito Cr and its surrounding drainage systems define this high-altitude landscape in Rio Arriba County. This modern survey illustrates a network of isolated water sources essential for land management in the region, including Bassett Spring, Red Lake, and the tandem of Lower Leavry Pond and Upper Leavry Pond. The terrain is characterized by dramatic elevation shifts across Tapicito Ridge and through Leavry Canyon and Bear Canyon.

Access to this remote territory is primarily facilitated by rugged corridors like Pounds Mill Rd and Co Rd 402. These roads follow the natural contours of the land, providing a glimpse into how contemporary ranching or resource management interacts with the physical geography of the Jicarilla Apache region. The map also delineates several township and range boundaries, such as t28n r3w and t27n r2w, which are foundational for local property research and genealogical tracing in northern New Mexico.
