About this map

Lake Henry, a prominent water body in Crowley County, serves as the focal point for an intricate irrigation system in this high plains landscape. Fed by the Colorado Canal and the Inlet, the lake's water levels are managed through the West Ditch and the Sugar City Lateral. The surrounding terrain is defined by dry watercourses and seasonal drainages, including Horse Creek, Breckenridge Creek, and Black Draw. Local ranching and agricultural operations are evidenced by scattered landmarks such as Faw Wells and a Water Tank positioned on the higher ground overlooking the creek beds. This 1970s survey illustrates a region where water management infrastructure, including the Colorado Canal, dictates the layout of the rural landscape.
