About this map

Lake Henry serves as a focal point for this Crowley County landscape, illustrating a complex system of water management essential to the high plains. The map traces the intricate paths of the Colorado Canal and the Sugar City Lateral, alongside engineered features like the W Ditch and the Lake Meredith Inlet. These channels reflect the long-standing agricultural dependence on diverted water, where natural drainages such as Horse Cr and Breckenridge Cr meet man-made infrastructure.

In the southwestern corner, the Valley View Cem stands near the intersection of Colorado Canal Rd and Co Rd J 5/10, providing a specific anchor for genealogical research in this rural township. The grid of county roads, including Ln 21 and Co Rd S, organizes the surrounding sections, highlighting the transition from dry draws like Black Draw to the vital reservoirs that define the region's modern layout.
