1963 Map of Truchas Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

North Truchas Peak and Middle Truchas Peak crown this high-elevation landscape where the boundaries of Santa Fe, Rio Arriba, and Mora counties meet. The 1963 field survey documents a wilderness of alpine lakes and dramatic ridgelines, including the Trailriders Wall and Pecos Baldy. Human presence is marked primarily by isolated structures like Brazas Cabin and the Panchuela West Cabin, connected by an extensive network of pack trails. These routes navigate the drainage basins of the North Fork Rio Quemado and Rio Medio, providing access to high-country basins such as Horsethief Meadow. The map also captures the intersection of the Santa Fe National Forest and Carson National Forest, alongside the northern edge of the Nuestra Senora Del Rosario San Fernando Y Santiago Grant Bdy.
