2002 Map of Pecos

About this map

The Pecos River valley serves as the central artery for this northern New Mexico landscape, where spiritual, industrial, and ancient histories converge. The Benedictine Monastery and Monastery Lake sit just north of the village of Pecos, while the industrial legacy of the region is marked by the Terrero Mill (Site) and associated Tailings Pond along Alamitos Creek. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the Pecos National Historic Park, protecting significant Ruins and the Visitors Center near the path of the Glorieta Pass Historic Trail. Further south, the map details the transition into the Los Trigos Grant, where the Forked Lightning Ranch House and a local Trading Post are situated near the riverbanks. Diverse terrain features like Cerro de Escobas and the massive Glorieta Mesa frame the valley's cultural and ecological sites, including the Lisboa Springs Fish Hatchery.
