About this map

Pierce Oil Field dominates the southwestern corner of this Weld County landscape, revealing the industrial footprint of petroleum extraction in the mid-20th century. The area is defined by an extensive network of water management infrastructure essential for High Plains agriculture, including the Lone Tree Ditch and several lateral systems like the Pierce Lateral and Burger-Gault Lateral. These man-made channels feed significant local catchments such as Antelope Reservoir and the Rowe Brothers Reservoir, illustrating how the arid terrain was modified to support farming.
