About this map

Center and the surrounding agricultural basin define this landscape, where a rigid grid of roads and water management systems supported the San Luis Valley farming economy in the late 1960s. The region is marked by its systematic drainage and irrigation network, including the Rio Grande Drain, Prairie Ditch, and Raney Ditch, alongside numerous Flowing Wells that indicate the importance of groundwater for local agriculture.
