2019 Map of Fulcher Gulch

About this map

Monte Vista Canal and the Sheridan S Ditch dominate the eastern plains of this quadrant, illustrating the critical role of water management in the San Luis Valley. This irrigation infrastructure supports the agricultural activity visible near Spring Cr and the Resettlement Ditch. Moving west, the terrain rises sharply from the valley floor into the high country, marked by geological features like Fulcher Gulch and Goat Ranch Gulch. The intersection of the Rio Grande Co Conejos Co line serves as a central reference point for the region's geopolitical division. Local transportation networks range from the straight-line Gunbarrel Rd on the flats to the winding S Greenie Trail and Bronson Pk 5100 which navigate the more difficult western slopes. Goat Ranch Spring provides a rare named water source in the rugged hills north of The Canyon.
