About this map

The Prospect Valley landscape in 1951 reveals a highly engineered agricultural environment, where a network of irrigation systems sustains the high plains east of the Rockies. The Low Line Canal, Prospect Lateral Ditch, and the Henrylyn Canal (Abandoned) trace the essential movement of water toward fields and reservoirs like Lord Reservoir. This infrastructure supported a cluster of small rural stations and family-named locations such as Krauss, Johnson, and Sheehan, which served as local points of contact for the surrounding farmsteads.
