2020 Map of Stony Lake

About this map

The Colfax Co Mora Co boundary line bisects this high-elevation landscape, where the drainage systems of the Sangre de Cristo foothills begin to define the terrain. Ocate Cr meanders across the northern section, feeding into Ferguson Lake and passing near the ephemeral Dry Laguna. The topography is marked by deep incisions, most notably Dog Canyon and Pup Canyon, which provide a clear view of the erosion patterns characteristic of this part of New Mexico. In the southwest corner, the namesake Stony Lake sits as a primary landmark. Infrastructure is minimal, consisting largely of Co RD C-4, reflecting the rural and ranch-oriented nature of the borderlands between Colfax and Mora counties. This 2020 edition provides precise modern topography for a region defined by its rugged watercourses and seasonal basins.
