2022 Map of Badito Cone

About this map

San Isabel National Forest dominates the eastern landscape of this Huerfano County region, where the high desert meets the rising eastern slopes of the mountains. The southern edge of the survey follows the path of the Huerfano River, supported by irrigation features like the Garcia Ditch. Genealogists will find several family-named burial sites across the territory, including the Cisneros Cem near Reveille Canyon, the Maes Creek Cem, and the Gardner Catholic Cem to the south. Distinctive geological features like Badito Cone and Santana Butte provide vertical relief among a network of drainages such as Gomez Canyon and Arroyo Hondo. This modern topographic study shows a rural landscape defined by ranch roads and water sources like Santana Spring and Saint Jude Spring, illustrating the persistent reliance on natural springs and river-valley access in this part of Colorado.
