1972 Map of Sabinoso

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Canadian River and Mora River converge in this high-plains landscape of northeastern San Miguel County, carving deep canyons into the mesas. The small settlement of Sabinoso serves as a central point, anchored by the Santa Mission Ch and nearby cemeteries. The map reveals a remote ranching and subsistence economy where travel relied on routes like the Pack Trail and Deep Trail through the breaks. Named topographic features like Cerro del Miguel Antonio and La Botella indicate a landscape deeply tied to local family names and landmarks. Further south, the community of Sanchez is noted along with its own Cem, while Ancon sits near the river bend. The intricate network of canyons, including Cañon Largo and Cañon Sabinoso, illustrates the dramatic erosion patterns typical of this portion of the Canadian River basin.
