1954 Map of Rosa

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Rosa and its landmark Santa Rosa Ch sit at the confluence of the San Juan River and Sambrito Creek, a region defined by agricultural irrigation and burgeoning energy exploration in the mid-1950s. The landscape is carved by significant drainages such as Bancos Canyon and Cottonwood Canyon, while the higher elevations of Miller Mesa overlook the river valley. Irrigation infrastructure is prominent, featuring the Mentzel Ditch and Miller Ditch, which supported local homesteads before the landscape was altered by later water management projects.
