2019 Map of Corral Bluffs

About this map

Corral Bluffs dominate the northwestern horizon in this 2019 survey of the eastern fringes of Colorado Springs. This area of El Paso County transitions from the city's suburban edges into a landscape defined by arroyos and drainage systems like Williams Creek and Chico Creek. The presence of N Franceville Coal Mine Rd and its southern counterpart hints at the region's industrial heritage, even as modern residential and recreational developments like Dragonman Dr and Eaglenest Dr mark the contemporary usage of the land. The map reveals a grid of rural routes including Corral Valley Rd and Enoch Rd, showing how the open prairie is being partitioned for ranching and newer homesteads while maintaining proximity to the growing urban center. The survey captures the delicate balance between the natural escarpments and the expanding footprint of human infrastructure in the high plains.
