1968 Map of Bayfield

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Los Pinos River valley defines this high-altitude agricultural landscape, where the town of Bayfield serves as a hub for the surrounding ranching and irrigation systems. Sophisticated water management is evident through an extensive network of gravity-fed infrastructure, including the King Consolidated Ditch, Pine River Canal, and the Spring Creek Extension Ditch. These channels transformed the arid terrain between Shellhammer Ridge and the San Juan National Forest into productive land.
