2013 Map of Bisonte

About this map

Bisonte sits at a crossroads of the high plains in Baca County, where the grid of county roads meets the north-south artery of US Hwy 287 385. The landscape is defined by the expansive Comanche National Grassland, a testament to the region's recovery and preservation following the Dust Bowl era. Surface water is sparse and seasonal in this semi-arid environment, with the drainage patterns of Dry Creek, Lone Rock Draw, and Sand Arroyo Creek cutting shallow paths across the terrain. The map's layout reveals a classic township and range system, with numbered sections such as 01 and 15 meticulously demarcated by roads like Co Road AA and Co Road 27. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the ranching and conservation infrastructure that supports the local economy and ecology.
