2013 Map of Pueblo Peak

About this map

Pueblo Peak stands as the prominent centerpiece of this high-elevation terrain in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Much of the landscape is defined by the Carson National Forest, where a network of deep drainage systems like Frijoles Canyon and Palo Encebado Canyon carve through the massif. The waterways of Rio Pueblo de Taos and Buffalo Grass Cr dictate the natural travel corridors through these peaks, which include Ranchos Peak and Casita de Piedra Peak. The map reveals a land focused on resource management and preservation, shown through the various forest service road designations like 10 and 10a. The drainage patterns, particularly around Burnt Ridge Canyon and Capulin Canyon, offer a clear look at the complex topography that governs this part of the Northern New Mexico highlands.
