Vásquez de Coronado's route:   Francisco Vásquez de Coronado, preparing to spend his second winter in New Mexico, sent out expeditions from Tiguex, near Bernalillo, in the fall of 1541 to gather supplies.   Captain Francisco de Barrionuevo went as far west as Jémez Pueblo, then visited others as far north as the Rió Chama.
