Sacramento and Mayhill anchor this high-elevation landscape within the Lincoln National Forest, where the Rio Penasco drainage defines the movement across the terrain. Located in Otero County, this 2017 study illustrates the modern interface between small mountain settlements and protected federal lands. The map traces the winding paths of state and local roads as they follow the natural contours of the Sacramento Mountains, connecting these remote outposts through a network of canyons and ridges. This modern topographic record is a vital resource for understanding the contemporary geography of the region, showing how the historic village of Sacramento remains a focal point for the surrounding canyon country.
