Latir Peak Wilderness is a 20,506-acre protected area in Carson National Forest in northern New Mexico, designated in 1980 in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Centered on Latir Mesa, it rises from dense forest into meadows and alpine tundra and includes several prominent summits, among them Venado Peak, Latir Peak, Latir Mesa, and Virsylvia Peak, all above 12,500 feet. Much of the wilderness is drained by the Lake Fork of Cabresto Creek, which begins at Heart Lake and is impounded at Cabresto Lake just outside the boundary. With its high peaks, alpine habitat, wildlife, trout streams, and protected watershed, it is a notable mountain landscape.
