About this map

The San Juan River and Animas River converge at Farmington, forming a centerpiece for this high-desert landscape in the late 2010s. The map illustrates a complex network of agricultural infrastructure, with the Independent Ditch, N Farmington Ditch, and Willett Ditch channeling water across the terrain. To the south, the landscape transitions from the urban grid of the city into the stark topography of Shannon Bluffs and deep cuts like Gallegos Canyon and Stewart Canyon.

Infrastructure and industry are prominent, including the Four Corners Regional Airport and the operations at Napi Headquarters. Residential growth is evident at Lee Acres, while local history is preserved at Greenlawn Cem and Dustin Masonic Memorial Park. The survey also documents the La Plata River entering the San Juan valley, a critical junction for the region's historical and contemporary water management.
