2016 Map of Oakbrush Hill

About this map

Nutria and the northern reaches of the San Juan National Forest anchor this modern survey of the high-elevation landscape south of Pagosa Springs. The area is defined by a series of dramatic canyon systems and high mesas, including Eightmile Mesa and Newton Mesa, which are carved by the San Juan River and the Rio Blanco. Water management is prominent through the Echo Canyon Reservoir and Vista Lake, supporting the local community and ranchlands. The map reveals the intricate network of residential development north of the forest boundary, with numerous named streets such as S Pagosa Blvd and Parelli Institute Dr expanding toward the wilder terrain of Oakbrush Hill and Burns Canyon.
