2019 Map of Big Springs Ranch

About this map

USAF Academy Bullseye Auxiliary Airfield stands as a focal point in this southern section of the High Plains, where military aviation infrastructure meets the sprawling agricultural landscape of El Paso County. The area is defined by a network of wide-reaching drainages, most notably Black Squirrel Cr and Big Springs Cr, which influence the local topography. At the northern edge, the namesake Big Springs Ranch marks a traditional land use that contrasts with the more modern residential development hinted at by street names like Sangre de Cristo View Rd and Mountain Range View Rd. The transition from rural homesteads to contemporary subdivisions is visible through the dense grid of residential roads, such as Dinner Bell Dr and Buffalo Grass Pt, while major thoroughfares like Calhan Hwy and Sanborn Rd maintain the area's connectivity to the broader region.
