2023 Map of Puertecito

About this map

Alamo and Puertecito serve as the primary human settlements in this arid Socorro County landscape, where the seasonal flow of the Rio Salado carves through high desert terrain. The area is defined by a complex series of mesa and peak formations, including Cottonwood Draw Mesa, Gag Mesa, and the prominent La Cruz Peak. Local water sources, often vital for survival and livestock in this environment, are specifically marked at Richard Spring and Alamo Spring. To the southeast, the topography transitions into the protected boundaries of the Cibola National Forest, where Jaralosa Creek and Abbe Spring Canyon further reveal the rugged drainage patterns. This modern survey illustrates how infrastructure, such as Forest Rd 123 and various county roads like Co Rd 27, navigates the difficult relief between the plains and the surrounding high ground.
