USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
The South Platte River and its accompanying wetlands dominate the western portion of this map, reflecting the complex water management system of the Colorado plains. Extensive irrigation infrastructure, including the Burlington Ditch, O'Brian Canal, and Fulton Ditch, branches out across the landscape to support the region's agricultural roots. The eastern side is anchored by Barr Lake and its surrounding Barr Lake State Park, providing a distinct contrast to the urban development concentrated in Brighton.
