2019 Map of Nero Hill

About this map

Nero Hill rises above a landscape defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure in Crowley County. This 2019 survey documents the engineered water management systems essential to High Plains agriculture, centered around the Colorado Canal and its various distribution arms including the Pelster Lateral and Swink Lateral. The terrain is marked by the north-to-south flow of Bob Cr, which feeds into the Cudahy Reservoir on the western edge of the quadrangle. The map captures the geometric precision of the Public Land Survey System, with township lines like t20s r57w and local routes such as Colorado Canal Rd following the established section grids. This survey provides a technical look at the water rights and land divisions that sustain the region's rural economy.
