1963 Map of La Plata

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

La Plata and its surrounding high desert terrain appear in this detailed survey, situated just south of the Colorado and New Mexico state line. The landscape is defined by the La Plata River corridor and an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure, including the Enterprise Ditch, Pioneer Ditch, and Highland Park Ditch. These waterways reflect the region's historical reliance on managed water to support local agriculture and livestock operations like the Two Cross Ranch.
