About this map

Julesburg Reservoir dominates this high plains landscape on the border of Logan and Sedgwick counties, serving as a critical hub for water management in the early 1950s. The intricate network of irrigation systems, including the Sterling Outlet Canal, Highline Canal, and Harmony Ditch, illustrates the complex engineering required to sustain agriculture in this arid region. Near the southern edge, the South Platte River flows past Long Island, flanked by the Union Pacific railroad corridor.
