1954 Map of Sandia Park

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

San Pedro Grant and the eastern slopes of the Sandia Mountains define this mid-century landscape where high-desert archaeology meets rural settlement. The map documents significant historical sites including the Pa-ako Ruins and San Pedro Ruins situated along the drainage of San Pedro Creek. Small mountain communities like San Antonio, Sandia Park, and La Madera are clustered near the western edge of the quadrangle, with La Madera Cemetery serving as a local genealogical landmark. Traces of past infrastructure are visible through the Old Railroad Grade traversing the southeastern terrain, while the extensive Cibola National Forest boundary marks the transition into protected mountain lands. Numerous seasonal watercourses such as Arroyo Armijo and Frost Arroyo dissect the canyons, reflecting the traditional land divisions and drainage patterns of the region.
