About this map

The Uncompahgre River flows through the southwestern corner of this mid-century landscape, paralleled by the tracks of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad. This area, spanning the border of Delta and Montrose counties, is defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the high desert valley. The East Canal, Selig Canal, and Garnet Canal represent a complex system of water management that transformed the arid East Mesa into productive land.
