About this map

Santo Domingo de Cundiyo Grant and the Nambe Indian Res meet along the western boundary of this high-elevation mountain terrain within the Santa Fe National Forest. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the broad, flat profiles of Mesa Borrego and the deep, winding incisions of Cañon Navajo and Cañon Chimayo. These canyons channel several significant waterways, including the Rio Medio and Rio Quemado, which flow through the protected reaches of the Pecos Wilderness. The presence of the Borrego Trail and scattered high-altitude springs like Cienega Redondo reflect the area's historical reliance on seasonal grazing paths and primitive routes through the Santa Fe Mountains. This survey captures the region's wilderness character just after the turn of the millennium, documenting the hydrography and topography of the New Mexico backcountry before modern shifts in forest management.
