About the jemez river
The Jemez River is a tributary of the Rio Grande and is located in New Mexico. It flows for approximately 50 miles through the rugged Jemez Mountains before joining the Rio Grande near Bernalillo. The river has a rich history, dating back to Native American tribes who relied on its waters for irrigation and agriculture. Today, the Jemez River is used for recreational purposes, including fishing and hiking, and also provides water for agriculture and drinking water for nearby communities. Several reservoirs and dams have been constructed along the river, including the Jemez Canyon Dam and the San Antonio Reservoir, to help manage its hydrology and ensure a consistent water supply. However, the river also faces challenges such as drought and the impact of wildfires on its water quality.
