1953 Map of Sierra Mosca

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Santa Fe National Forest encompasses this high-altitude landscape of northern New Mexico, defined by the deep drainage basins of the Rio Medio and Rio Frijoles. This 1953 survey details a network of watercourses and canyons, including Cañon Navajo and Cañon Chimayo, that descend from the prominent peak of Sierra Mosca. The map documents a sparsely inhabited wilderness punctuated by remote outposts such as Agua Sarca Cabin and Pajarita Cabin, suggesting a landscape used primarily for seasonal grazing or forest management.
