About this map

Harrence Lake and the adjacent Russell Lakes define the water-rich landscape of this Saguache County territory. The terrain is structured by a network of drainage features, including the southward-flowing Werner Arroyo and the eastward course of Russell Creek. The area’s geography is heavily influenced by these wetlands and seasonal waterways, such as Ball Arroyo and Island Lake, which punctuate a landscape largely organized by a strictly gridded road system.

A network of numbered and lettered county roads, including County Rd 50 and County Rd T, indicates a region developed for rural access and systematic land management. The presence of La Garita Creek along the southern border further underscores the importance of the San Luis Valley's hydrological systems in shaping local boundaries and utility. This survey provides a clear view of the hydraulic and transportation layout of the region at the start of the 2010s.
