2020 Map of Yankee

About this map

The high mesa country of the New Mexico and Colorado border defines this landscape, where the settlements of Yankee and Carisbrook sit at the foot of massive volcanic plateaus. To the north, Lake Maloya straddles the state line, while Barela Mesa and Horse Mesa create a dramatic high-altitude horizon along the Colorado and New Mexico border. The map captures a complex terrain of deep incisions like Sugarite Canyon and Yankee Canyon that drop away from the sprawling Johnson Mesa.
