About this map

Wrights Mesa dominates the eastern portion of this high-plateau landscape, where the agricultural community of Redvale sits atop the divide between the San Miguel River and Naturita Cr. The map reveals a complex irrigation network essential to this arid region, featuring the Gurley Ditch, Parkway Ditch, and Doing Ditch, which traverse the undulating terrain to support local ranching. Further south, the small settlement of Coventry is marked near the Coventry Cem, serving as a focal point for local family history and genealogy.

The physical geography is defined by deep incisions like Naturita Canyon and San Miguel Canyon, alongside numerous named drainages such as Quinn Draw and Little Maverick Draw. This 2016 survey documents the modern road grid, including Co HWY 90 and numerous rural routes like ff31 RD, that connect these isolated canyon-edge communities. The inclusion of Mailbox Park and various spring-fed draws illustrates the intersection of public land use and the natural water sources that dictate settlement patterns in Montrose and San Miguel Counties.
