2016 Map of Antelope Mesa

About this map

Antelope Mesa anchors this landscape in western Crowley County, defining a high prairie environment where water management is central to the land's utility. The presence of the Colorado Canal in the southern portion of the quadrangle indicates the critical role of irrigation systems in this arid region. Several localized water features, including George Lewis Number 6 Reservoir and Cudahy Reservoir, suggest a history of private or cooperative ranching and agricultural efforts. The terrain is marked by the transition from the mesa top down toward the canal valley, with Bluff Springs providing a rare natural water source amidst a grid of rural section roads like Olney Springs Rd and Co Rd R.
