About this map

The town of White Rock sits atop a high plateau, bounded by the deep incision of White Rock Canyon and the Rio Grande. This 2020 layout shows the residential expansion of the community, characterized by winding street patterns like Piedra Loop and Joya Loop, set against the federally protected lands of Bandelier National Monument and the Santa Fe National Forest. The landscape is a network of drainage systems, including Pajarito Canyon and Mortandad Canyon, which have shaped the mesas over millennia.

Transportation corridors like E Jemez Rd and Pueblo Canyon Rd connect the residential core to the surrounding plateau. Historically significant landmarks such as the Otowi Bridge in the north and the former site at Buckman along the river provide touchpoints for regional development. Recreational access is detailed via the White Rock Canyon Rim Trail, while the river itself features numerous named springs and hazards like Ancho Rapid.
