About this map

Adobe Creek Reservoir (Blue Lake) dominates the southwestern landscape of this High Plains region, where the border between Kiowa Co and Bent Co cuts across the water's surface at an elevation of 4,128 feet. This 1978 survey highlights a sparsely populated area defined by essential water management and land use, featuring the elongated basin of Long Lake to the north and the smaller Potters Lake on the eastern edge. The map records a functional landscape of section lines and fence lines, with infrastructure supporting local recreation and industry, such as a designated Picnic Area near the reservoir and a remote Drill Hole in the central plains. This topographic study reflects the era's reliance on aerial photogrammetry to document the subtle relief and vital water resources of the Colorado prairie.
