The owners, Monty and Vikki Roberts are personable and eager to please and do furnish, as advertised, a country breakfast. It is right on the road north from 325, maybe 2 miles north and about 2 miles from the trailhead, which is quite well marked. We located what we hoped would be and turned out to be a very nice place to stay, Black Mesa B&B. MalibuBill - 6:35 pm - Hasn't voted Black Mesa B&B and hike The highest point of Mesa de Maya, also known as the Corona, is 6,840+' in Las Animas County, Colorado.
The USGS lists the highest point in Colorado at an elevation of 5,715', however, this point flows directly up to the Mesa de Maya also in Colorado. This type of process is what formed Black Mesa, OK, as well as many of the features in northeast New Mexico.īlack Mesa's true summit does not lie in Oklahoma, as the slope gradually in elevation across New Mexico and Colorado. Igneous rocks, the type associated with all volcanism, are much more durable and erosion-resistant than the sedimentary rocks that they overlay thus, the borders of the lava flow form a sort of cap that prevents the rock beneath them from being eroded as quickly as the rock immediately next to the flow's boundary. The main draw to the area is nearby Capulin Volcano in New Mexico, which spewed forth the lava flow that created Black Mesa. When this area was volcanically active, lava flows, cones and domes all worked in concert to shape the landscape that can be seen today. This area is found in the extreme western part of the state's Panhandle, and is named for the dark pumice found all over the terrain. The highest point in Oklahoma, Black Mesa, is 1,517 m (4,975 ft) above sea-level.
