1969 Map of Badito Cone

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Turkey Creek and Maes Creek wind through this high-altitude landscape of southern Colorado, providing vital water to a network of ranching and burial sites. The presence of Cisneros Cem and Maes Creek Cem alongside an unnamed Cem in the southern sector suggests a history of family homesteads established in the valleys below Santana Butte. The Huerfano River defines the southern boundary of this survey, supported by the Garcia Ditch irrigation system. To the east, the terrain rises into the San Isabel National Forest, where the prominent volcanic landmark of Badito Cone overlooks small-scale mining activity labeled as Prospects. The map captures a moment when traditional land use, from gravel extraction to spring-fed watering holes like St Jude Spring, remained the primary human footprint in this corner of Huerfano County.
