2023 Map of Vigas Canyon

About this map

Carson National Forest encompasses much of this high-plateau landscape in Rio Arriba County, where a complex network of canyons and mesas defines the terrain. The hydrology of the region is centered on ephemeral drainages and intermittent water sources, such as Muñoz Creek and Carrizo Creek. Named water features like Candelaria Waterhole, Honolulu Tank, and Agua Bonito Spring provide essential points of interest for those tracking historical livestock movements or early land use. This area is characterized by dramatic elevation changes, moving from the depths of Vigas Canyon and Cereza Canyon to the prominent heights of Tuckers Ridge and Ciruelas Mesa. The grid of county roads, including Co RD 496 and Co RD 366, provides a modern reference for navigating these remote forest lands.
