1971 Map of Barela

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Barela and its surrounding high-country terrain define this 1971 survey of Las Animas County, where the southern Colorado landscape transitions into a series of massive mesas and deep canyons. The settlement itself sits near the Barela Cem and Hermosa Dam, connected to the wider region by the Southern railroad line. The map reveals a complex water system essential for high-altitude ranching, including Petes Lake, Lantin Lake, and the numbered basins of Lake No 1 through Lake No 3.
