2013 Map of Box Ranch

About this map

Box Ranch anchors the northern portion of this high-plains landscape in southeastern Colorado, situated near the headwaters of Bachicha Cr. The terrain is defined by dry drainage systems and elevated landforms, notably the prominent Piñon Ridge in the northwest and Aguaje Canyon to the east. Transportation through this part of Las Animas County is facilitated by Us-160, which cuts across the central portion of the map, and a network of county roads including Co RD 147 and Co RD 143. The presence of Pipeline Rd running north-south indicates the industrial infrastructure that crosses this open country. To the southeast, the terrain descends toward the winding path of Chacuaco Cr, illustrating the complex local topography of ridges and seasonal watercourses that characterize this rangeland.
