About this map

The South Platte River corridor near the Nebraska border defines this agricultural landscape, where irrigation engineering supports the high plains economy. The settlement of Crook sits north of the river, served by a network of county roads including County Rd-138 and County Rd-85. This 2010 survey illustrates the sophisticated water management systems required in Logan County, prominently featuring the Harmony Ditch Number 1, Harmony Ditch Number 3, and Chambers Ditch that lace the valley floor.

Local landmarks such as Candon Ranch and the small siding at Tobin reflect the region's rural character. Natural water features like Slaughter Pond and Coyote Spring contrast with the carved path of Spring Canyon to the west. The map provides a clear record of the intersection between the river's natural course and the human-made infrastructure that has sustained these communities for generations.
