1970 Map of Loma Creston

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Santa Ana Indian Reservation and the surrounding ancestral lands define this high desert landscape, which was meticulously field-checked in 1970. The terrain is marked by dramatic geological formations such as Santa Ana Mesa and Loma Creston, where the interplay of mesas and deeply cut drainages like Borrego Canyon shaped historic movement through the region. This 1970s record captures the complex intersection of land grants and reservation boundaries, including the Zia Indian Reservation Ojo Del Borrego Grant Boundary and the Santo Domingo Pueblo Indian Reservation. Significant landmarks like Bodega Butte and the intermittent flow of Arroyo Bodega provide specific navigational points for researchers studying the geographic heritage of the San Ysidro and Jemez Valley vicinity. The map also delineates the southern reaches of the Santa Fe National Forest, documenting the overlap of federal and tribal land management at the time.
