Colorado National Monument dominates this landscape, where the high plateau of Monument Mesa drops away into a complex system of canyons including Ute Canyon and Wedding Canyon. Along the northern edge, the Colorado River corridor supports the community of Redlands and the industrial infrastructure of the Grand Valley railroad. This map captures a highly engineered hydrological landscape where the Redlands First Lift Canal and Independent Ranchmens Ditch pull water from the river to support the arid valley floor.
