2022 Map of Buttes

About this map

Fountain Creek winds through the eastern portion of this landscape, flanked by the high ground of The Buttes and the small settlements of Buttes, Wigwam, and Henkel. The terrain is defined by a complex network of arroyos and canyons, including Sand Creek and Young Hollow, which drain toward the central valley. Genealogy researchers will find the Wilson Cem near Williams Cr, while the presence of the R D Nixon Reservoir and various irrigation works like the Cotton Slough Ditch and Jackson and Burke Ditch reflect the critical role of water management in this arid corridor. On the western edge, the Military Reservation Boundary Rd marks the transition into restricted federal lands. The map also documents modern residential developments with distinctive street names like Indian Village Hts and Boca Raton Hts.
