1995 Map of Tres Ritos

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

Rancho del Rio Grande Grant and the Santa Barbara Grant define the complex land tenure of this high mountain region where the Sangre de Cristo Mountains meet the Picuris Mountains. The settlement pattern follows the narrow valley of the Rio Pueblo, where small communities like Las Mochas and Tres Ritos are located along the canyon floors. This 1990s revision shows a landscape balanced between traditional grazing grounds and modern recreation, evidenced by the Sipapu Ski Area and various Forest Service facilities like Llanito Frio and Flechado. The presence of the Cristobal de la Serna Grant in the northwest further illustrates the area's deep history of Spanish and Mexican land grants. In the high backcountry, numerous peaks and named canyons like Osha Canyon and Amole Canyon dominate the topography of the Carson National Forest.
