About this map

Hoovers Corner serves as the central point for this agricultural and canyon-cut landscape in western Colorado. The map reveals an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the high-desert climate, featuring the Ironstone Canal, C Canal, and several lateral systems like the C O A Lateral. These waterworks define the productivity of the tablelands, specifically California Mesa, Ash Mesa, and High Mesa.

Southward, the terrain transitions into the complex topography of the Shavano Valley and the sharp descents of Coalbank Canyon. The map records distinct geological and recreational features, including the formation known as The Fingers and the Cushman Creek Trail, which winds through the rugged southern reaches near Ewok Village. From the drainage of Big Sandy Wash to the heights of Roatcap Gulch, the sheet documents a landscape shaped by both water management and natural erosion.
