2013 Map of Rociada

About this map

Rociada and Upper Rociada sit at the eastern edge of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, where the canyon floors open into high valleys near the Sapello River. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by agricultural history and modern recreation, featuring the Pendaries Grist Mill alongside the developing Pendaries Village. Small cemeteries like San Antonio Cem and Santo Niño Cem point to long-established family settlements, while several large properties such as Harvey Ranch and Honey Boy Ranch are noted in the southern reaches of the Santa Fe National Forest. The transition from the high peaks of Bluebell Ridge down through drainage systems like Manuelitas Cr and Daily Cr shows the vital water networks that once supported milling and ranching in this part of San Miguel County.
