2013 Map of Tecolote

About this map

Serafina and Bernal anchor this portion of San Miguel County, where the high-plains landscape is deeply carved by the waters of Tecolote Cr and Tres Hermanos Cr. The terrain is dominated by the prominent landmark of Starvation Peak, which rises above the valley near the intersection of the primary transportation corridor and the Santa Fe National Forest boundary. Small, dispersed settlements like Gabaldon, Santa Ana, and Cedar Hill reflect a long-standing pattern of mountain-fringe habitation and ranching. Genealogists may find value in the specific locations of rural post offices designated by Po labels and local road networks such as Baez Ln and CO Road B-28-A. The survey also marks the Bernal Lone Butte airway beacon, a remnant of mid-century aerial navigation infrastructure near Blanchard.
