2011 Map of Youngsville

About this map

Youngsville and Coyote serve as the primary hubs of this Rio Arriba County landscape, where the high-desert terrain is marked by a network of ranching and forestry roads. The Coyote Post Office stands as a central landmark for the western settlement, while the Youngsville Cemetery and nearby Youngsville Prospects suggest a history of both community and mineral exploration. The drainage of the Rio Puerco and its tributaries, including Coyote Creek and Rito Encino, define the local topography, carving through landforms like Mesa Naranja and Banco Largo. Evidence of rural habitation and land use is scattered throughout the area, notably at El Cerrito, the C Serrano Cabin, and the Encino Corral, illustrating a pattern of remote settlement oriented around water sources and grazing lands near the striking silhouette of Cerro Pedernal.
