1996 Map of Bisonte

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Comanche National Grassland dominates this landscape in Baca County, where the topography is defined by the intermittent drainage of Lone Rock Draw, Dry Creek, and Sand Arroyo. The settlement of Bisonte sits in the southwestern portion of the sheet, serving as a focal point in a region characterized by sparse water resources and a dependence on subsurface access. A network of wells, including the specifically named Big Bankiter Well, is mapped throughout the township and range grid, illustrating the vital role of water infrastructure for cattle and agriculture in this semi-arid high plains environment. The presence of a Communication Tower and a significant Pipeline corridor crossing the terrain reflects the mid-to-late 20th-century modernization of this remote landscape, even as many roads remain primitive 4wd tracks.
