2016 Map of Lewis Ranch

About this map

Horse Cr Reservoir dominates this high-plains landscape in southeastern Colorado, straddling the county line between Otero and Bent counties. This 2016 survey highlights the intricate irrigation network essential to local agriculture, featuring the Fort Lyon Storage Canal and the Horse Cr Supply Canal which feed into the primary basin. The map documents the Horse Cr Reservoir Outlet Ditch as it moves water southward, along with smaller irrigation features like the Lewis Lateral. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the namesake Lewis Ranch located near the reservoir's northern shore. A grid of rural roads, including Timber Lake Rd and various county routes like Co RD 36, provides access across the townships of Township 21 South and Township 22 South.
