1967 Map of Villa Grove

About this map

Villa Grove sits at the northern end of the San Luis Valley, serving as a focal point for the ranching and resource landscape of Saguache County in the late 1960s. The map illustrates a transition from the elevated terrain of Clayton Cone down to the valley floor, where irrigation is managed through the Schultze Dettrick Ditch and the San Luis Company Ditch. A significant historical remnant is the Old Railroad Grade running east of town, indicating the importance of past rail connections for moving ore or livestock. Hydrology is central to the area, defined by San Luis Creek and the thermal waters at Mineral Hot Springs. Scattered Gravel Pits and numerous marked Wells highlight the infrastructure required for local industry and agriculture in this high-altitude environment.
