1964 Map of Pagosa Springs

About this map

Pagosa Springs and its surrounding landscape are defined by the winding course of the San Juan River and a sophisticated network of water management features. During the early 1960s, the town's expansion was supported by the presence of Stevens Airfield and local infrastructure such as a Radio Tower and Gravel Pit. The mapping highlights the critical importance of water storage in this high-altitude environment, featuring several prominent named basins including Hatcher Reservoir, Sullenburger Reservoir, Stevens Reservoir, and Bennett Reservoir.
