1972 Map of Reno Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Reno Reservoir sits in the high plains of Weld County, serving as a primary water management landmark in this expansive agricultural and ranching landscape. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of Geary Creek and Willow Creek, which carve distinct paths through the contours of northern Colorado. Recorded in the early 1970s, the map illustrates the sparse infrastructure of the region, where land use revolves around these vital water sources. Aside from the small-scale Spring and reservoir, the sheet preserves the location of scattered wells and section lines, providing a detailed record of the rural landscape before later developments or changes in land management. It reflects the intersection of natural hydrology and human resource engineering in a high-desert environment.
