The Rio Grande corridor south of Albuquerque defines this landscape, where ancient river management systems sustain a string of agricultural settlements. The complex network of water features, including the Upper Peralta Riverside Drain, Los Lunas Ditch, and Tome Drain, illustrates the critical importance of irrigation in the Rio Grande Valley. These channels weave through communities like Los Lentes, Bosque Farms, and Peralta, supporting a transition from traditional farming to modern residential expansion.
