1971 Map of Brush West

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The South Platte River and its accompanying irrigation network dominate this portion of Morgan County, where the agricultural landscape meets the heavy infrastructure of the High Plains. The town of Brush serves as a vital hub, characterized by the presence of Eben-Ezer Hospital and two major rail lines: the Union Pacific and the Burlington Northern. This transportation and water management system, including the Upper Platte and Beaver Canal and Beaver Ditch, supported the growth of outlying settlements like Dodd and Lodi. Rural education is marked by the Colwell School and Morey School, which, along with local Cem sites, provide valuable data for genealogical research. The river valley is preserved in part by the Brush State Wildlife Area and Chartier State Wildlife Area, while Dodd Bridge provides a key crossing point for local commerce.
