Santa Fe National Forest encompasses the high country and canyonlands of this terrain, where the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail winds along the western ridges. The landscape is defined by the drainage of the Rio Puerco and numerous tributary arroyos, such as Arroyo Hondo and Arroyo de los Pinos, which have carved deep paths through Señorito Canyon and San Miguelito Canyon. Smaller settlements like San Pablo, Señorito, and San Miguel are clustered near the base of the mountains, reflecting the rural ranching and forestry traditions of Sandoval County. Distinctive landforms like Marion Butte and Cerro Castrado provide clear navigation points for those tracing the historical geography of this region. Notable water sources including San Miguel Spring and Horseshoe Spring emphasize the vital importance of dependable water in this arid high-elevation environment.
