- GEORGIA O’KEEFFE

Lakes and Reservoirs on the Rio Chama
Fishing, swimming, rafting, sailing, water skiing, canoeing, and kayaking are available on three easily accessible lakes up river from Abiquiu. Abiquiu Reservoir Dam, creating Abiquiu Lake was constructed in 1963 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and now covers about 2,000 acres of former Ghost Ranch land. This is the second of three dams, creating Heron & El Vado Lakes, constructed on the Chama River watershed between 1935 and 1972. Swimming, camping, hiking, fishing and picnicking are offered at Canjilón Lakes located near the 10,000 foot Cerro Canjilón.
Chama River Wilderness
The Wild and Scenic Chama River runs through the 50,300-acre Chama River Canyon Wilderness where you can enjoy the rush of a whitewater raft trip. The walls of the Chama Canyon are a striking variety of colors from yellows to maroons marking the distinct layers of sedimentary rock. With the elevation differences, the vegetation varies from Pinon and juniper to ponderosa and fir with lots of Gambel oak, chamisa and cactus. Above the high sandstone bluffs and prominent rock formations that line the river canyon, the trail system is in need of maintenance.
Echo Amphitheater
The sandstone walls of this National Forest Service site provide a remarkable resonance. The ‘theater’, naturally hollowed out by ages of erosion creating concave cliffs of buff and crimson, create lasting echoes.
Plaza Blanca
Given its unusual and spiritual landscape it’s no wonder that Plaza Blanca, is painted and photographed by countless artists every year including Georgia O’Keeffe. The canyon wall faces of gray to whitish sedimentary rock formations have been sculpted by wind and moisture in whimsical figurines.
Pedernal Peak
Cerro Pedernal (Flint Peak), one of the most recognized landmarks in north-central New Mexico, is located in the northern Jemez Mountains, was depicted in numerous paintings by Georgia O’Keeffe. Cerro Pedernal lies in the transition zone between the Colorado Plateau and the Rio Grande rift. The andesite and basalt flows capping Cerro Pedernal, which give the mountain its distinctive flat top, erupted from the northern Jemez volcanic field about 8 million years ago. http://geoinfo.nmt.edu/tour/landmarks/cerro_pedernal/home.html
The Poshouinge Ruins
Remnants of an old pueblo above the Chama River Valley include a large pueblo with over 700 ground-floor rooms surrounding 2 large plazas with a large kiva in the larger plaza.
On Location – Movie Filming
The stunning landscape has attracted numerous movie makers to set all or a portion of their films in Abiquiu from Indiana Jones to City Slickers.

The original village, abandoned in the 1500’s, was the Tewa Indian Pueblo at La Puente about 3 miles SE of the current village. These people are thought to have moved from Mesa Verde in southern Colorado. The first Spanish settlers came in the 1740’s and called the community Santa Rosa de Lina de Abiquiu for their patron saint. After devastating Indian raids the people living in Abiquiu petitioned to move elsewhere. The genizaros (Hispaniciazed Indians) founded the current village in 1747 and named the new village Santo Thomas de Abiquiu. In 1754, the Abiquiu Land Grant of 16,000 acres was given jointly to the genizaros and Spaniards. It is one of the last Spanish-American community grants still functioning and owned by residents of Abiquiu. The descendants of these early settlers are proud of their heritage and continue to practice their traditions, such as the Penitente rites. On a humorous note, there are rumors of witches who give out love potions that keep husbands home at night. In the early 1800’s Abiquiu became the trailhead for the Old Spanish Trail linking Santa Fe and Los Angeles and was the third largest settlement in New Mexico Territory. The Old Spanish Trail was a pack mule route considered by historians to be the” longest, crookedest, most tortuous trail in the nation”. The 1200 mile trip between Los Angeles and Santa Fe took about 3 ½ months. The last caravan was a Mexican pack train in 1848. After the Mexican War the trail was replaced by more southerly routes that could accommodate wagons.
Santa Rosa de Abiquiu
This site is off US Highway 84 just south of Abiquiu. The ruins are the remnants of the original Spanish settlement. Santa Rosa de Abiquiu was built in the 1730’s, abandoned in 1748 because of Indian raids, resettled in 1750, and again abandoned when the population moved into the Genizaro pueblo.
Abiquiu Village
The Village was settled following a 1754 Spanish land grant to Hispanicized Indians (Genizaros) and was a frontier settlement for more than 80 years. In the 18th and 19th centuries, Abiquiu was a center of trade for Plains and Pueblo Indians, and a point of departure for those traveling along the northern Spanish Trail to Spanish settlements in California. A Catholic church built by the community in the 1930’s has become the Plaza’s centerpiece.
The Old Spanish Trail
One route of the Old Spanish Trail goes through the Rio Chama valley and Abiquiu. The trail takes its name from the old Spanish colonies in northern New Mexico and southern California which were linked by this rugged route. The Spanish outpost of Santa Fe, NM was founded in the early 1600’s ten years before the Plymouth Colony was established by the Mayflower pilgrims. The presidio of Monterey was founded in 1770 and the San Gabriel Mission in 1771. But it was not until 1829 that a suitable land passage between these colonies in the interior of New Mexico and the California coast became established and regularly used. Today, only a few remnant traces of the trail can be seen where hundreds of fast trotting mules and their tired muleteers once traversed the high country of New Mexico and Colorado on their way to California’s fertile trading fields.
For traveling Mexican caravans between 1829 and 1848, the Old Spanish Trail was known as the shortest path to riches between Los Angeles and Santa Fe. It was a trail of commercial opportunity and western adventure as well as slave trading, horse thieving and raids. The Trail route was established along a loose network of Indian footpaths that crossed the wide expanse of the Colorado Plateau and the Mojave Desert. With time, this newly established trade corridor attracted frontiersman and U.S. military expeditions.

The buildings, their immediate surroundings, and the views they command of mountains, mesas, cerros, and skyscapes inspired many of O’Keeffe’s best-known paintings and combine to provide insight into her vision and process. O’Keeffe moved from New York City to Abiquiu in the late 1940s and lived in this 5,000-square-foot home dating from the Spanish Colonial era. Seasonal tours open to the public. www.okeeffemuseum.org
