About this map

Yucca House National Monument and its nearby Ruins anchor the southern portion of this high-desert landscape in Montezuma County, illustrating the intersection of ancient history and mid-century utility. The map traces a complex network of agricultural irrigation in the Montezuma Valley, defined by the Duncan Ditch, Aztec Ditch, and Highline Ditch. These waterways supported the local economy alongside the Ute Field and an isolated Oil Well.
