2010 Map of Arcola

About this map

Arcola serves as the focal point for this section of Laramie County, situated along the meandering path of Crow Creek. The landscape is defined by its water management and distinct terrain, notably the Chalk Bluffs and the infrastructure surrounding Beaver Dam Reservoir. A network of early 21st-century irrigation and transport routes is visible, including the Beaver Dam Ditch and a grid of rural county roads. Smaller watercourses like Little Crow Creek and Geary Creek drain the surrounding plains. The map illustrates a high-plains ranching or agricultural environment where human settlement is sparse and dictated by the availability of water, centered on the small hub of Arcola.
