1960 Map of Nepesta
USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
The Arkansas River valley in Pueblo County is defined here by an intricate web of irrigation infrastructure, where the Colorado Canal, Rocky Ford Highline Canal, and Oxford Farmers Ditch parallel the winding riverbanks. The settlement of Nepesta serves as a small rail and agricultural hub near the junction of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and Missouri Pacific railroads. This network of ditches and canals, including the Welton Ditch, illustrates the heavy engineering required to support ranching and farming in the arid landscape south of the river.
