1953 Map of Tetilla Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Tetilla Peak and the high volcanic landscape of the Caja del Rio Grant overlook a complex network of ancient mesas and colonial land grants in this mid-century New Mexico study. The Santa Fe River carves through the Cañada de lo Santa Fe, separating the sprawling La Bajada Mesa from the lower drainage systems to the south. Historically significant sites such as the Tsinat Ruins and the La Bajada Mine illustrate the long span of human activity in this arid region, from early indigenous settlement to later mineral extraction.
