About this map

San Ildefonso Pueblo lies at the eastern edge of this landscape where the Rio Grande cuts through the high desert. The terrain is defined by a series of dramatic mesas and deep drainages, including Sawyer Canyon and Los Alamos Canyon, which radiate from the volcanic highlands of the Santa Fe National Forest. Historic sites such as Puye and Popawi are noted in the northwest, representing significant cultural landmarks on the Pajarito Plateau. The complex drainage network of Rendija Canyon, Pueblo Canyon, and Bayo Canyon illustrates the intricate erosion patterns of the volcanic tuff that characterizes this region. Modern connectivity is provided by roads like Battleship Hw and Than Povi Po, which trace the base of the mesas near the river valley, while higher elevations are accessed by routes like Indian Svc Rd 602.
