USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
The San Juan River corridor in the mid-1960s reveals a landscape defined by the intersection of traditional irrigation and modern energy extraction. The settlement of Kirtland and the western edge of Farmington are anchored by an extensive network of water management features, including the Farmers Mutual Ditch and the Fruitland Irrigation Canal. These systems support local agriculture, while the Univ of New Mexico Experimental Farm suggests a scientific approach to high-desert land use.
