1966 Map of Mile High Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Barr Lake and the surrounding high plains of Adams County are defined here by an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure designed to manage water in this arid landscape. This 1966 survey, revised through 1979, illustrates the complex water management system featuring the Burlington Canal, Denver-Hudson Canal, and Speer Canal. These waterways feed numerous private and regional reservoirs including Bowles Res No 1, Meeks Res No 2, and Calhoun Reservoir.
