About this map

Escondido Cemetery sits near the head of Escondido Canyon in the northwest corner of this quadrangle, marking a quiet point of human presence in a landscape defined by deep drainages and ridges. The terrain is carved by a network of seasonal watercourses including Deadman Canyon, Nelson Canyon, and Kemp Canyon, which flow generally eastward toward the Hondo Valley. These geographic features reflect the complex erosion patterns common in the Sacramento Mountains foothills of New Mexico.
