About this map

Blanca sits at the intersection of US Highway 160 and the Alamosa and Costilla County line, serving as a hub for the surrounding agricultural basin. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of water management, with the Newton Ditch and Garland Ditch redirecting flows toward the expansive Smith Reservoir. Several waterways including Trinchera Cr and Sangre de Cristo Cr converge south of the settlement, highlighting the importance of irrigation in this high-altitude valley. Near the town, the Blanca Airport and various rural routes like Co RD H H and Co RD 14 connect the residential grid to the broader region. The map also records numerous local road names such as Boulder Rd and Valdez Rd, providing valuable points of reference for those tracing 21st-century property boundaries and land use.
