2018 Map of Buzzard Ranch

About this map

Buzzard Ranch serves as a central landmark in this high-altitude Carbon County landscape, situated where the high plains meet the northern slopes of the Ferris Mountains. The terrain is defined by complex drainage systems and topographic depressions, including the broad Arkansas Flats and the sheltered Castle Basin to the northeast. Several significant canyons cut through the rising southern elevations, most notably Miners Canyon and Sand Creek Canyon, suggesting a history of mineral exploration and rugged passage through the mountain foothills.
