2023 Map of Tafoya Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Cañon Largo serves as the primary drainage corridor through this section of Rio Arriba County, where a complex network of seasonal washes and canyons define the high-desert landscape. The terrain is characterized by prominent geological features such as Rincon Largo and the steep-walled Rockhouse Canyon to the north, giving way to the namesake Tafoya Canyon in the central portion of the sheet. Remote water sources like Otero Spring are critical landmarks in this arid region, which is also bisected by a series of county roads including Co RD 379 and Co RD 523. The presence of numerous canyons, such as Gallo Canyon and Escrito Canyon, suggests a highly dissected topography where historical movement likely followed the natural contours of the valley floors and ridges.
