About this map

The South Platte River carves a winding path across this portion of Weld County, defining a landscape dominated by extensive irrigation infrastructure. This 2010 survey highlights the complex network of water management essential to the region's agricultural character, featuring major arteries such as the Latham Ditch, Empire Intake Canal, and the Riverside Intake Canal. These man-made waterways interact with natural drainages like Box Elder Creek to support the surrounding plains.

Small settlements and rural holdings are scattered throughout the territory, including Kuner in the northwest and Hardin near the river's center. Further east, Seventy Ranch and the Bijou Dam mark the transition toward more open terrain. The map is crisscrossed by a grid of local roads, such as County Rd 50 and County Rd 380, which connect these isolated points of habitation and industry across the wide river valley.
