2013 Map of Villa Grove

About this map

Villa Grove and the namesake waters of Mineral Hot Springs anchor this portion of the northern San Luis Valley during the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by the transition from the high-desert valley floor to the rising foothills, most notably at the distinct peak of Clayton Cone. Agriculture in this arid environment is facilitated by complex water management systems, including the Schultze Dettrick Ditch and the San Luis Company Ditch, which redirect the flow of San Luis Cr across the plains.
