2023 Map of Truchas
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
Truchas and Ojo Sarco anchor this high-altitude landscape where the Santa Fe Mountains meet the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. The settlement patterns here are deeply rooted in communal land management and traditional irrigation, evidenced by the presence of the Acequia de Ojo Sarco and various trick tanks like Jacinto Trick Tank. This 2023 survey documents the enduring presence of local religious and community heritage through numerous burial grounds, including the Truchas Pueblo Cem, San Miguel Cem, and Smith Memorial Presbyterian Cem. The terrain is defined by a dense network of mountain drainages such as Rio de Truchas and Rio Quemado, which carve through the Vallecitos de Abajo and Vallecitos de Arriba. Between the Carson National Forest and Santa Fe National Forest, the map reveals a rugged interface of public lands and traditional New Mexican villages.
