2023 Map of Wind Mesa

About this map

Wind Mesa and the elevated expanse of Pajarito Mesa dominate this southwestern Bernalillo County landscape, characterized by distinct geological formations and a network of service roads. The map illustrates a transition from the structured residential street names like John Muir Dr, Copernicus Dr, and La Perouse Dr in the northeast to the more utilitarian transit routes serving the high ground. To the south, the topography descends into drainage systems such as Cedar Wash, while the western edge is marked by the prominence of Blackbird Hill. This survey highlights the intersection of modern rural development and the traditional land management paths of the area, including Indian Svc Rte 611 and Los Padillas Rd, reflecting the complex infrastructure required to navigate this high-desert terrain.
