About this map

Horse Creek Reservoir (Timber Lake) dominates this high-plains landscape on the border of Otero and Bent Counties, serving as a vital hydrologic hub in the mid-1950s. The map illustrates a complex network of irrigation infrastructure essential for local ranching, including the Fort Lyon Storage Canal and the Supply Canal. These man-made arteries, along with the Horse Creek Inlet Ditch, highlight the era's intensive water management.
