1995 Map of Navajo Peak

About this map

Christ of the Desert Monastery sits along the winding course of the Rio Chama within a landscape defined by the deep incisions of the Chama River Canyon Wilderness. This 1990s revision reveals a rugged canyon system where the river meets the Gallina River at the southern boundary of the quadrangle. The topography is dominated by massive elevated features like Mesa Golondrina and the sharp rise of Navajo Peak, while the northern portion is marked by The Hogback. Numerous isolated water sources, such as Valdez Tank and Sapa Tank, serve as vital landmarks for navigation through the Coyote Ranger District and surrounding national forests. The transition between the Santa Fe and Carson national forests is clearly delineated, showing a remote backcountry preserved for wilderness value, accessible primarily through canyons like Lobo Canyon and Chavez Canyon.
