1994 Map of Pleasant View

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Pleasant View and the surrounding high mesas of Montezuma County are defined by a complex network of deep drainage systems and early water management infrastructure. In this 1990s landscape, the terrain is deeply incised by Little Cahone Canyon, Hovenweep Canyon, and Sandstone Canyon, which drop away from the agricultural flats. The presence of several Canals, an extensive Aqueduct system, and facilities like the Pleasant View Pumping Sta and Ruin Canyon Pumping Sta illustrate the intensive effort to move water across this arid high-desert environment. Scattered Gas Wells indicate the region's energy development, while isolated landmarks such as a lone Grave and various radio towers stand as quiet sentinels on the plateaus above Negro Canyon and Woods Canyon. This map provides a detailed view of the interaction between natural canyon geology and the engineered systems required to sustain local life.
