1979 Map of Bledsoe Ranch

About this map

Bledsoe Ranch serves as a primary reference point in this corner of the High Plains, where the borders of Lincoln, Kit Carson, and Cheyenne counties converge. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of intermittent drainages, including Wild Horse Creek and Sand Creek, which carve through the high prairie terrain. These watercourses, alongside named features like Folger Gulch and Aroya Gulch, suggest a reliance on seasonal water management in a semi-arid environment, further evidenced by the various scattered Tank and Well sites across the sections.
