2020 Map of Pinabetoso Peaks

About this map

Pinabetoso Peaks rise within a landscape defined by the intersection of administrative and natural boundaries on this high-altitude plateau. A portion of the Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument occupies the central sections of the sheet, reflecting the area's protected status and conservation history. The map captures the complex border geography where the Colorado New Mexico state line meets the meeting points of Conejos, Taos, and Rio Arriba counties. Human movement through this terrain is represented by a sparse network of service roads, including Co Rd 16, Forest Rd 118, and Gravel Pit Rd, indicating a region primarily dedicated to resource management and national monument access rather than residential settlement.
