2023 Map of Mule Dam

About this map

Sisnathyel Mesa overlooks a high-desert landscape in Sandoval County, characterized by a complex network of arroyos and service roads. This 2023 survey illustrates the essential role of water management in the region, featuring several specialized basins including Remedy Pit Tank, Chimney Pit Tank, and Abundant Pit Tank. These water sources are vital markers for those tracking land use and resource management across the township lines of T22N R6W and T21N R5W. The area's hydrology is dominated by seasonal drainages such as Cañada Alamos, Cañada Corrales, and Encino Wash, which carve through the terrain. Transportation is largely defined by service routes like Indian Svc Rte 46 and Indian Svc Rte N474, alongside local paths like White Church Rd and the Alamo Loop, providing a clear record of the modern infrastructure and rural connectivity in this corner of New Mexico.
