2019 Map of Big Rock Grange

About this map

Big Rock Grange stands as the central landmark in this high plains landscape of Baca County, where the agricultural tradition is etched into the geometric grid of the Public Land Survey System. The terrain is defined by the ephemeral drainages of Sand Cr, N Horse Cr, and S Horse Cr, which carve subtle relief into the flat prairie. This 2019 survey illustrates a vast network of section-line roads, such as Co RD RR and Co RD 20, that facilitate movement across the remote corner of Southeast Colorado. The interplay between these watercourses and the strict township and range boundaries—including t28s r47w and t29s r47w—reveals how natural hydrology and human-imposed legal geography coexist in a region defined by its ranching and farming history.
