Chicoma Mountain (; also spelled Tschicoma or Tchicoma) is the highest point in the
Jemez Mountains, a prominent mountain range in the
U.S. State of
New Mexico. The
tree line in this area is exceptionally high, and the mountain is forested almost all the way to its summit which is conspicuous from the towns of
Los Alamos,
Santa Fe, and
Española and other areas in the valley of the
Rio Grande in northern New Mexico. Like the rest of the Jemez, it is of
volcanic origin; it lies on the northeast rim of the
Valles Caldera, one of the best examples of a
caldera in the United States.
