Cerro Pedernal

Cerro Pedernal, (Tewa: Tsip'in) locally known as just "Pedernal", is a narrow mesa in northern New Mexico. The name is Spanish for "flint hill". The mesa lies on the north flank of the Jemez Mountains, south of Abiquiu Lake, in the Coyote Ranger District of the Santa Fe National Forest. Its caprock was produced in the Jemez Volcanic Field. Its highest point is at 9,862 ft.

Pedernal is the source of a chert used by the prehistoric Gallina people. Its cliffs are popular with rock climbers. Georgia O'Keeffe made many paintings of it, and her ashes were scattered on its top.

The Tewa name of the mountain is Tsip’in (tsi’i, obsidian; p’in, mountain). The Cochiti name is Hest'e'yanyik'othe (hest'e'yanyi, obsidian; k'othe, mountain).
