2002 Map of Sapello

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Sapello and the surrounding canyon country of San Miguel County appear here in a landscape defined by the legacies of the Mora Grant and Las Vegas Grant. The map highlights a series of small, traditional settlements following the watercourses, including Manuelitas along Manuelitas Creek and Tierra Monte near Las Quebraditas. These communities are marked by local landmarks like the Brother of Jesus Mission and several family or community burial grounds such as San Ignacio Cem and the Soledad Cem. The terrain is characterized by deep canyons like Cañon del Medio and prominent ridges including Fragoso Ridge, illustrating how the early geography of northern New Mexico dictated the placement of mountain villages and ranching outposts far before modern development altered the region.
