1995 Map of Tres Orejas

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Carson National Forest Resettlement Area defines the northern landscape of this Taos County survey, where complex land use history meets the high desert. The terrain is dominated by the volcanic prominence of Tres Orejas VABM 7976 and the deep drainage of Arroyo Aguaje de la Petaca. This mid-1990s revision reveals an intricate network of water management features essential for ranching and forest management in an arid environment. Numerous catchment basins, such as Section 15 Tank, Soloman Tank, and Borrego Tank, are scattered across the plains and foothills. The presence of the Carson Reservoir and the naming of the Resettlement Area provide a clear indication of federal land programs and the vital role of water rights in this New Mexico high-altitude plateau.
