2013 Map of Andrix

About this map

Andrix serves as the primary landmark in this high plains section of Las Animas County, situated along the southern edge of the Comanche National Grassland. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainages of Mustang Creek and O U Creek, which carve subtle topography through the range land. Human presence is sparse, centered on the historic Andrix Cemetery and the east-west corridor of US Highway 160. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring nature of the settlement pattern in this part of Southeast Colorado, where large-scale ranching and land conservation are the primary uses. The grid of county roads, including County Road 52 and County Road 215, provides access to the vast open spaces of the public grasslands, reflecting the area's agricultural and conservation identity in the early 21st century.
