Blue Mesa Reservoir, Colorado Map Art
Building by building, with labeled streets and shaded relief.
12" x 18" Archival Matte Print
A Map of the Lake. A Work of Art.
See Blue Mesa Reservoir, Colorado the way you’ve never seen it before. Created using aerial imagery and detailed geographic data, this map captures Blue Mesa Reservoir from shore to shore, with the towns and roads along the water, its islands and points, every building near the shore, and shaded relief that shows the hills rising around the lake.
The water tells its own story. It’s shaded by depth from a real survey of the lake bottom, pale in the shallows and darker where the bottom drops away, so you can trace the deep water and the drop-offs you know from the boat. Whether you’ve got a place on the water, spent your summers there, or fish it every chance you get, this map is a great way to celebrate a lake that means something to you. Zoom in on the preview to find your stretch of shore, and then order a print to put it on the wall.
Three ways to hang it

The Lake, Drawn from Real Data
This map was created using accurate cartographic data and authoritative sources, including the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the agency that surveyed the lake bottom, which is credited on the map. It brings together the shoreline, the depth of the water, terrain, roads and buildings, and the names along the shore follow the curve of the water’s edge. Combining this data with carefully composed color and shading leads to this beautifully detailed Blue Mesa Reservoir artwork for your wall. It’s a work of art, not a navigation chart.
Zoom in on the high resolution preview to see exactly what’s on the map. We truly set out to create a statement piece for anyone who loves Blue Mesa Reservoir. So whether it’s for the lake house, for you, or a gift for someone you love, we hope this map of Blue Mesa Reservoir brings back fond memories.
