1951 Map of Brush West

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The South Platte River corridor dominates this 1951 study of Morgan County, revealing an intricate network of irrigation vital to the high plains agricultural economy. The landscape is defined by human engineering, where the Upper Platte and Beaver Canal, Riverside Canal, and Snyder and Curry Canal divert water across the valley to support local ranching and farming. In the southern portion of the map, the town of Brush serves as a regional hub, anchored by the Eben-Ezer Hospital and served by two major rail lines: the Union Pacific and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy.
