1995 Map of Pueblo Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The Sangre de Cristo Mountains dominate this 1990s terrain, where the northern high desert gives way to the sharp ridges and deep canyons of northern New Mexico. The Pueblo de Taos Indian Reservation covers the northern portion of the map, meeting the Carson National Forest along a boundary that cuts through the drainage of the Rio Pueblo de Taos. This landscape is defined by its topographic extremes, from the summit of Pueblo Peak in the northwest to the complex network of canyons in the south, including Palo Encebado Canyon and Casita de Piedra Canyon. The presence of the Antoine Leroux Grant Boundary reflects the region's long history of land grants and early surveying. Water sources like Capulin Spring and the converging flows of La Junta Creek and Deer Creek highlight the vital riparian corridors that have sustained this arid mountain environment for centuries.
