About this map

Hi Allen Ridge and Number 5 Ridge dominate the southern landscape of this Carbon County region, where high plains topography meets a network of water management features. The area's ranching history is evidenced by landmarks such as Chace Ranch and the small settlement at Como, alongside several livestock or irrigation-related water bodies including Rosebud Reservoir, Big Rock Reservoir, and Number 5 Reservoir.

Drainage patterns across the quadrangle are defined by deep cuts like Missouri John Draw and Dixie Draw, which lead toward the Medicine Bow River in the northeast. The northern reach of the map features distinctive terrain markers like Wildcat Top and the broken ground known simply as The Breaks. Local infrastructure is represented by the path of Big Ditch near Ramsey and the established routes of Co RD-316 and Co RD-115.
