2017 Map of Osha Mountain

About this map

Angel Fire anchors the northern extent of this mountain landscape, where the residential developments of the Moreno Valley meet the high peaks of the Carson National Forest. The map documents a complex network of high-altitude roads such as El Camino Real and Ute Valley Dr serving the resort community. Moving south, the terrain becomes increasingly wild, rising to the summit of Osha Mountain and the ridge lines of the Santa Fe Mountains and Sangre de Cristo Mountains. This 2017 survey reveals the high-country parks and meadows like Little Garcia Park and Valle Largo that define the transition between Taos, Colfax, and Mora counties. In the southeast, the Black Lakes basin near the Black Lake Cem provides a focal point for the headwaters of Coyote Cr, illustrating the vital water resources that flow from these high-elevation watersheds.
