Waverly anchors this San Luis Valley landscape, defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to Colorado high-desert agriculture. The survey details the complex hydraulic engineering required for the region's farms, featuring major arteries like the Empire Canal and Monte Vista Canal alongside more localized systems such as the Resettlement Ditch and Denver Colony Lateral. These waterways follow the natural gradients of the valley floor, occasionally crossing paths with natural drainages like Cat Creek and Rock Creek.
