Talk:Jornada del Muerto

message: The Jornada del Muerto is NOT in the same basin as White Sands.  White Sands is in the Tularosa Basin on the EAST side of the San Andres Mountains. The Jornada del Muerto is to the WEST of the San Andres Mountains. Bejnar 15:52, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I deleted material more appropriate for the general article on El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro.
I deleted the damming of the Rio Grande and the reservoirs as that is on the other side of the Caballo Mountains (and the Fra Cristobal Range) from the Jornado del Muerto. Bejnar 16:40, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Seattle Skier is correct that a small part of the Jornada del Muerto is a large lava field.  A look at the map shows that the large lava field (at the northern end) is but a very minor part of the Jornada del Muerto, less than 2%.  The lava field in question basically defines the northern boundary of the Jornado.  The actual fissure is north of the Jornada del Muerto.  Given the uniqueness of the Jornada del Muerto Volcano, I suspect that it deserves its own article.  See for example: "Jornada del Muerto Volcano" from New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science. --Bejnar 19:42, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I completely agree with you.  I was actually just minutes away from creating the article.  I'll make the reference to Jornada del Muerto Volcano which I added to this article be a link to the new article.  It's funny that we were both thinking the same thing simultaneously.  It's nice to be able to find some common ground that we can agree on.  --Seattle Skier (talk) 20:51, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

message: There is general agreement that "muerto" means "dead man", singular.  The phrase "del muerto" means "of the dead man".  A couple of editors have attempted to translate "jornada" in this phrase as "day" or "working day".  But it needs to be recalled that the name was given in the 1700s by speakers of the Spanish spoken in New Mexico, which is neither Castellano nor the Spanish spoken in Mexico.  The translation certainly doesn't need to have any nuances of meaning that were added to the lexical baggage of "jornada" over the last 300 years.  I have added citations to the article to substantiate the provided translation, especially the translation by historian Fray Angélico Chávez of Santa Fe, NM, a native New Mexican Spanish speaker who said that "Jornada del Muerto" translates as "Route of the Dead Man."

message: Something is not right in the sentence:
The Jornada del Muerto trail was that part of the Camino Real when traveling northward left the Rio Grande from the Paraje de Robledo, later the site of Fort Selden, just north of Las Cruces, New Mexico.
It's not a sentence.  There's no way that can make sense to me.  I certainly don't want to change any meaning.  But is the following more specific, and what was intended? (probably not):The Jornada del Muerto trail was that part of the Camino Real, which, when traveling northward, departed from the Rio Grande at the location of the Paraje de Robledo (later the site of Fort Selden, just north of Las Cruces, New Mexico).
