2020 Map of Mogote Hills

About this map

Wagon Mound and its iconic landmark, The Wagon Mound, dominate the northern landscape where historical routes once converged. The terrain is defined by a series of mesas and drainage systems, including Las Mesas Del Conjelon and the high points of the Mogote Hills. These geological formations guide the flow of seasonal waters through Vermejo Cr, Arroyo Jarosa, and Arroyo Chorro, creating a complex network of draws and arroyos. This 2020 survey illustrates how modern infrastructure, such as the Frontage Rd, integrates with the ancient topography. Notable for its water features and distinct canyons, the area includes Gallegos Lake and the evocatively named Bootlegger Canyon. The map provides a precise look at the township and range boundaries that continue to organize this high-plains region of Mora County.
