2023 Map of The Volcanoes

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Petroglyph National Monument dominates the eastern edge of this 2023 survey, preserving a dramatic volcanic landscape and cultural heritage site where the city of Albuquerque meets the West Mesa. The map details a series of prominent basaltic cones known collectively as The Volcanoes, including Vulcan Volcano, Black Volcano, and J A Volcano. This geological chain is intersected by numerous drainage patterns such as North San Antonio Arroyo and Ladera Arroyo, which flow toward the Rio Grande valley. To the north, the suburban expansion of Rio Rancho and Rio Rancho Estates shows a dense grid of residential streets like Southern Blvd SW and Capistrano Rd SW. The transition from the structured residential blocks of Sandoval Co to the open terrain surrounding the Double Eagle II Airport illustrates the unique interface between modern urban development and protected high-desert geological features.
