2021 Map of Borie

About this map

Water management and transit define this landscape southwest of Cheyenne, where a network of reservoirs and intermittent creeks crisscross the high plains. The settlement of Borie sits along Otto Rd, while the southern reaches of the map near Gleason and Speer are characterized by irrigation infrastructure including the Polaris Ditch and numerous catchments like 7XL Reservoir, Valley Reservoir, and Spotswood Reservoir Number 2. These features underscore the importance of water storage in an environment where natural flows like Goose Creek and Lone Tree Creek often run dry.
