About this map

The South Platte River valley dominates this 1953 landscape, showcasing an intricate network of irrigation and water management essential to the high plains. The expansive Julesburg Reservoir sits at the heart of the sheet, supported by a system of waterways including the Highline Canal and Settlers Ditch. Notable evidence of shifting water priorities appears in the decommissioned Sterling Outlet Canal (Aban'd) and Sprague Brothers Ditch (Aban'd), marking the evolution of local agriculture.
