1978 Map of Campo NW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Lone Star Cem stands as a solitary waypoint in the high plains of Baca County, marking a localized history of settlement in this arid corner of Colorado. The landscape is defined by the intermittent drainage of the Sand Arroyo and the seasonal flow of the North Fork Cimarron River in the south. Unlike many mountain quadrangles, the terrain here is subtly etched by North Ure Canyon, revealing a pattern of land use dictated by water access and the section lines of the public land survey system. Numerous wells dot the landscape, underscoring the critical importance of groundwater for the survival of remote agricultural interests in this region during the late 1970s.
