2022 Map of Pleasant View

About this map

Pleasant View serves as the primary settlement in this corner of Montezuma County, where the high desert plateau is deeply incised by a network of drainage systems. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, notably where the land falls away into Hovenweep Canyon, Sandstone Canyon, and Ruin Canyon. These natural features, along with Woods Canyon and Negro Canyon, create a rugged topography that dictates the placement of roads and human infrastructure. Agricultural development is evident through water management features such as the Dove Cr Canal and S Canal, which support the local farming economy. A dense grid of county roads, including Co RD Ee and Co RD 16, connects the dispersed homesteads and farms back to the central hub at the Po and the intersection of N Broadway.
