The high plains of eastern Morgan County are defined by a sophisticated network of water management and rural section lines in this 2016 survey. Near the settlement of Union, the landscape transitions from open range into a corridor of irrigation infrastructure, including the Riverside Intake Canal, Snyder Canal, and North Sterling Canal. These artificial waterways cut across natural topographic features like Antelope Draw and Dead Horse Draw, illustrating the region's reliance on diverted water for agricultural viability. Grounded by the presence of Antelope Springs and the Headley Reservoir, the map also documents local industry through the Sand Gravel Mine. The regular grid of county roads, such as Co RD 29 and Co RD Ii, provides a clear view of the modern land divisions that have organized this territory since the early township and range surveys.
