2013 Map of San Antonio Mountain

About this map

San Antonio Mtn dominates this high-altitude landscape within the Carson National Forest, its volcanic profile rising above the surrounding high plains and canyons. The map documents a complex system of water management in an arid environment, where named tanks like Stanley Tank and San Antonio Tank supplement natural features such as Ursulo Lake and the Rio San Antonio. These water sources are essential for the livestock operations evidenced by Stewart Corral and Pole Corral in the northwest, near the open expanse of Stewart Meadows. In the south, the terrain becomes more broken, defined by the winding course of the Arroyo Aguaje de la Petaca and prominent landmarks like Red Hill and Lamy Peak. The presence of Cisneros Park and various family-named canyons, such as Montoya Canyon and Malette Canyon, reflects the long history of land usage and seasonal grazing in this part of Rio Arriba County.
