About this map

The high plains of the Laramie Co Weld Co borderlands are defined by an intricate network of irrigation and livestock infrastructure in this 1963 survey. Situated near the settlement of Altvan, the landscape is etched with historical water management features like Stewart Ditch and Kingman Ditch, which redirect the flow of Crow Creek and Little Simpson Creek toward ranching operations. The topography is dotted with numerous named windmills, including Century Windmill, Heifer Pasture Windmill, and Bedortha Windmill, highlighting the critical importance of groundwater for this arid region.
