About this map

The high mesas and winding arroyos of northern Cibola County define the landscape of this 2013 survey. Settlements are clustered along the drainage systems, with Moquino and Seboyeta positioned along the banks of the Rio Moquino. Further south, the community of Paguate is established near the Rio Paguate, illustrating the historic reliance on seasonal water sources in this arid environment.

The map reveals a complex topography of named landforms such as Mesa del Lobo and Gavilan Mesa, intersected by deep canyons like Cañon de Pedro Padilla. Transportation through the area is facilitated by local routes including Indian Service Route 57 and the Moquino Llano Rd, which provide access between the scattered communities and the higher elevations of Mesa Chivato. Landmarks like Lobo Camp and Cerro Negro serve as distinct points of reference for those navigating the varied elevations of the Mount Taylor region.
