About this map

Ojo Feliz serves as the central hub of this Mora County landscape, where the high-altitude terrain transitions between volcanic peaks and seasonal basins. This contemporary survey captures a region defined by its traditional community anchors and distinct landforms. Genealogists will find significant value in the placement of several local burial grounds, including San Ysidro Cem, Ojo Feliz Cem, and the more isolated Casias Cem located to the east.

The physical geography is dominated by the prominent rise of Cerro Pelon and the ridge of La Cuchilla. Water features such as Apache Lake and Sand Lake appear alongside the drainage of Wolf Creek, illustrating the delicate balance of moisture in this high-country environment. The network of local travel is anchored by Ojo Feliz Rd, which provides access to the scattered homesteads and topographical landmarks like Cerro del Amole.
