2020 Map of Ojo Hedionda

About this map

Ojo Hedionda and the small settlements of Chapatalito and Loma Montosa define this high-desert landscape in Santa Fe County. This modern survey illustrates a network of ranch roads and water infrastructure essential for the arid environment, including Horse Shoe Tank, La Jara Tank, and Coyote Tank. The terrain is characterized by dramatic elevation changes, notably at the White Bluffs and the distinctive peak of Cerro Pelon. A sophisticated drainage system is visible through the branching paths of the Arroyo Jara and Gaviso Arroyo, which carve through the land alongside Hub Canyon. Historical land management is evident through the Township and Range lines, marking areas like t13n r9e and t12n r9e. Local travel is dictated by routes such as Zorro Ranch Rd and Pine Ranch Rd, which connect the isolated homesteads and geographic landmarks across the high plains and canyons.
