Soda Dam Hot Spring
The Soda Dam Hot Spring, also known as the Jemez Springs Soda Dam or simply Soda Dam, is a grouping of fifteen hot springs which have formed a unique calcium carbonate and travertine formation creating a bridge over the Jemez River in Northern New Mexico. Geology The Soda Dam was formed by calcium carbonate and travertine deposits from the thermal spring water that was built up over the course of 7,000 years. The river flows through the dome-like bridge created by the deposition of these minerals across the river. There is also a waterfall at the site. It is over 300 feet long, 50 feet high, and 50 feet wide at the base. The hot spring water is heated by volcanic magma of the Valles Caldera. The water percolates through shale and limestone, following cracks in the Jemez geological fault zone to emerge at the springs. Because algal filaments are contained within the carbonate rock, the site is used to study ways in which possible ancient life on Mars may be detected through exam ...

Jemez River
The Jemez River is a tributary of the Rio Grande in eastern Sandoval County, New Mexico, United States. Description The river is formed by the confluence of the East Fork Jemez River and San Antonio Creek, which drain a number of tributaries in the area of the Jemez Mountains and Santa Fe National Forest. The Jemez River is about long, or about long if its longest headwater tributary, San Antonio Creek, is included. The East Fork Jemez River is about long. Both San Antonio Creek and the East Fork Jemez River flow through intricate meanders along their courses.Lengths calculated in Google Earth The East Fork Jemez is a National Wild and Scenic River. The Jemez River flows generally south to join the Rio Grande near Bernalillo, north of Albuquerque.General course info from USGS topographic maps Course The main tributaries streams that join to form the Jemez River are San Antonio Creek and the East Fork Jemez River. Both originate on the west side of the Sierra de los Valle ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Northern New Mexico
Northern New Mexico in cultural terms usually refers to the area of heavy-Spanish settlement in the north-central part of New Mexico. However, New Mexico state government also uses the term to mean the northwest and north central, but to exclude both the northeastern high plains counties and Sandoval County. The five largest cities in Northern New Mexico are: Santa Fe, Las Vegas, Española, Los Alamos, and Raton. Cultural The traditional southern boundary of the area is an escarpment called La Bajada southwest of Santa Fe. The other boundaries are poorly defined. The map in is a guide: from La Bajada the boundary runs northwest about 50 miles (80 km) west of U.S. Routes 285 and 84, and northeast about 20 miles (30 km) east of Interstate 25, to the Colorado border. The area might also be described roughly as comprising Rio Arriba, Los Alamos, Taos, and Colfax Counties; northeastern Sandoval County, northern Santa Fe County; and western San Miguel and Mora Co ...

Valles Caldera
Valles Caldera (or Jemez Caldera) is a wide volcanic caldera in the Jemez Mountains of northern New Mexico. Hot springs, streams, fumaroles, natural gas seeps and volcanic domes dot the caldera floor landscape. The highest point in the caldera is Redondo Peak, an resurgent lava dome located entirely within the caldera. Also within the caldera are several grass valleys, or ''valles'', the largest of which is Valle Grande ( ), the only one accessible by a paved road. In 1975, Valles Caldera was designated as a National Natural Landmark by the National Park Service with much of the caldera being within the Valles Caldera National Preserve, a unit of the National Park System. History Use of Valles Caldera dates back to the prehistoric times: spear points dating to 11,000 years ago have been discovered.Anscheutz, Kurt F. and Merlan, Thomas (2007)"More than a scenic mountain landscape: Valles Caldera National Preserve land use history" U.S. Department of Agriculture Rocky Mountain ...

List Of Hot Springs In The United States
__NOTOC__ This is a dynamic list of hot springs in the United States. The Western states in particular are known for their thermal springs: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, Wyoming; but there are interesting hot springs in other states throughout the country. Indigenous peoples' use of thermal springs can be traced back 10,000 years, per archaeological evidence of human use and settlement by Paleo-Indians. These geothermal resources provided warmth, healing mineral water, and cleansing. Hot springs are considered sacred by several Indigenous cultures, and along with sweat lodges have been used for ceremonial purposes. Since ancient times, humans have used hot springs, public baths and thermal medicine for therapeutic effects. Bathing in hot, mineral water is an ancient ritual. The Latin phrase, ''sanitas per aquam'', means "health through water", involving the treatment of disease and various ailments by balneother ...
