Buffalo Springs Ranch serves as a primary landmark in this section of Washington County, characterized by a sparse network of county roads and intermittent water features. The local landscape is defined by the drainage of Buffalo Cr Reservoir in the north and the winding path of Twentytwo Slough in the southwest corner. The systematic organization of the high plains is evident in the grid of section lines and gravel routes, including Co Rd 55 and Co Rd 51, which facilitate travel between ranching properties. This 2019 survey documents the enduring ranching culture of the region, where named landmarks are rare but significant markers of habitation and water management in an arid environment.
