About this map

Water management dominates the landscape of the San Luis Valley on this sheet, where an intricate network of irrigation channels like the Wales Shellabarger Ditch, Niedhardt Ditch, and Peterson Ditch No 1 divert flow from the mountain streams. These human-made waterways intersect the natural drainage of Cotton Creek and Rito Alto Creek as they descend from the eastern peaks. The small community of Mirage serves as a central point for the surrounding ranches, supported by the Mirage Cem and the nearby Rito Alto Ch.
