Brule is the primary hub of this landscape, situated at the junction of the Union Pacific railroad and U.S. Route 30. The town’s relationship with the water is evident in the complex braiding of the South Platte River and the engineered irrigation system represented by the Western Canal, which skirts the base of the Vail Highland. To the north, the terrain is cut by drainage features like Brule Canyon and Chase Canyon, while the local economy is reflected in a Sandpit and Gravel Pit near the tracks.
