2021 Map of Arapahoe Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Arapahoe Ranch anchors the northern drainage of the Owl Creek mountains in this high-altitude landscape of Hot Springs County. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, from the flat-topped Little Table Mtn in the south to the sweeping Padlock Rim on the northeastern horizon. Water sources are critical landmarks in this arid environment, evidenced by numerous named seeps such as Knight Spring, Love Spring, and Chokecherry Spring. These springs and the riparian corridors of Owl Cr and its forks have historically dictated the movement of livestock and the placement of ranching infrastructure. Modern access follows older corridors like Merritt Pass Rd and Red Canyon Rd, which navigate the complex system of draws and ridges, including the prominent Blue Ridge. This 2021 update documents the persistent ranching footprint in a region where geography remains the primary driver of human activity.
