1968 Map of Center North

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Center serves as the focal point for this agricultural region in Saguache County, where a highly organized irrigation network defines the landscape. The intricate system of the North Main Canal, Farmers Union Canal, and various laterals like North Central Lateral and Lateral 47 suggests a landscape transformed by intensive water management. The survey documents the area's rural infrastructure, featuring family-named locations such as Lanier Ranch and Meadow Ranch alongside community essentials like the High Sch and Park. To the east, Leach Airport and a small Landing Area provide aviation access for this San Luis Valley community. The presence of numerous Flowing Wells across the grid highlights the reliance on artesian water to sustain the valley's farms and ranches.
