2011 Map of Los Indios Canyon

About this map

Los Indios Canyon and the surrounding drainage network define this high-country landscape in Rio Arriba County. The terrain is deeply incised by a series of geographic features including Cisneros Canyon, Cedar Canyon, and the sprawling Stock Driveway Canyon, which suggest long-standing routes for moving livestock through the territory. Water management is a central theme of the topography, evidenced by markers such as Timber Lake and the Tapia Tank, essential resources for both ranching and local wildlife in an arid environment.
