2013 Map of Orocovis

About this map

Orocovis and Villalba anchor this interior portion of the Island of Puerto Rico, where the central Cordillera Central dictates a landscape of steep peaks and winding watercourses. The 2013 survey reveals an intricate drainage network where the Rio Matrullas feeds into Lago de Matrullas, a significant reservoir in the western section of the map. High elevations are defined by prominent landmarks such as Cerro Doña Juana and Cerro Mime, illustrating the island's formidable central spine. The transport system relies on narrow routes like PR-143 and PR-151, which navigate the sharp contours between deep valleys such as those carved by the Rio Bauta and Rio Orocovis. This map serves as a detailed record of land use and topography in the heart of the Orocovis-Villalba region, capturing the physical barriers and connections between these mountain communities.
