USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The Colorado River Indian Reservation dominates this mid-century landscape, illustrating the intensive irrigation and settlement patterns within the Colorado River Valley. The rectangular grid of fields is serviced by a complex system of water management, including the Main Drain and Lateral Drain, which support the agricultural life of Poston and the adjacent Poston 2. This survey reflects the period when the area was being shaped by the infrastructure of the Colorado River, protected by a prominent Levee to the west.
