About this map

Moffat anchors the northeastern corner of this Saguache County landscape, its grid defined by prominent thoroughfares like Broadway, Reynolds Ave, and Garfield Ave. The town’s position marks the edge of a complex drainage network where the high-altitude desert meets a system of seasonal watercourses. To the south and west, the terrain is characterized by a series of arroyos and creeks, including the winding paths of Bull Arroyo and Werner Arroyo.

Hydrological patterns dominate the southern half of the sheet, where Saguache Creek and La Garita Creek traverse the valley floor. These waterways, along with Russell Creek and San Luis Creek, represent the critical irrigation and drainage infrastructure of the San Luis Valley. The map also captures the precise boundaries of T43N and T42N, documenting the section lines that historically organized land use and settlement in this part of Colorado.
