About this map

Arlington sits at the junction of rail and water infrastructure in this late 1970s survey of the high plains. The settlement is positioned along the Missouri Pacific railroad line, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural landscape. Water management is the defining characteristic of this terrain, evidenced by the extensive Colt Ditch and the Fort Lyon Storage Canal which feed into the massive Adobe Creek Reservoir (Blue Lake). These man-made features highlight the region's historical reliance on irrigation to support agriculture and ranching in a naturally arid environment.
