2010 Map of Masters

About this map

The South Platte River carves a central path through this landscape, defining an area heavily shaped by water management and irrigation. Located in Colorado, this 2010 survey highlights the intricate network of the Bijou Canal, Empire Intake Canal, and the Jackson Lake Inlet, which facilitate agricultural life in the semi-arid High Plains. Significant water bodies like the Riverside Reservoir and the Empire Reservoir, held by the Riverside Dam and Empire Dam respectively, dominate the northern and southern portions of the map. The small settlement of Masters and the Masters Post Office serve as the primary human centers, while the Yocam Ranch Airport indicates the role of private aviation in managing these large ranching and farming operations. Nearby Green City Flats and the community of Sublette further illustrate the sparse but deliberate distribution of homesteads and infrastructure across the Weld County terrain.
