About this map

Hydrological engineering defines this Saguache County landscape, where an intricate network of irrigation channels supported high-altitude agriculture in the late 1960s. The prominent Farmers Union Canal and Gibson Ditch anchor a system of distribution that includes the North Central Lateral, Lateral Fortyseven, and Cotton Road Lateral. Numerous sites labeled simply as Flowing Well, Well, or Wells are scattered across the terrain, indicating a heavy reliance on groundwater management. The map's layout of geometric survey sections and named laterals, such as the North Lateral and Central Lateral, illustrates the deliberate effort to bring water to this arid region for ranching or farming use.
