2019 Map of Cedarwood

About this map

The Huerfano River meanders through this high plains landscape at the border of Pueblo and Huerfano Counties, defining a region of deep canyons and seasonal water sources. The small settlement of Cedarwood sits near the head of Cedarwood Canyon, a geography marked by a network of drainage systems including Horse Thief Canyon and Little Joe Canyon. The arrival of water at the surface is critical to this arid environment, evidenced by named features such as Little Joe Spring, Bustos Spring, and Point Spring. In the southern portion of the map, Turkey Ridge rises above the Cucharas River valley, while a complex system of canyons like Bustos Canyon and Doe Canyon carve into the plateau. The land is organized by established county roads such as Co RD 342 and Co RD 701, reflecting the rural character and ranching infrastructure of this section of Southern Colorado.
