The village of Angel Fire sits in the northern highlands of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, where the local landscape is defined by the high-altitude transition from the Santa Fe Mountains to the valley floor. This 2020 survey documents a modern resort layout, with streets like Cimarron Trl and Taos Dr carved into the slopes northwest of Osha Mtn. To the south, the settlement of Black Lake and the nearby Black Lake Cem sit within the Carson National Forest, marking an area with deeper roots than the mid-century resort developments to the north. The geography is characterized by intricate drainage systems, including the headwaters of the Mora River and Coyote Cr, alongside natural basins like Black Lakes. This sheet captures the intersection of three counties—Taos, Colfax, and Mora—illustrating how the high peaks and passes like Osha Pass have dictated transit and land use in this part of New Mexico.
