2013 Map of Cottonwood Springs

About this map

Whiteside Ranch and isolated outposts like Adee and Tompkins define this corner of Union County, reflecting a landscape shaped by ranching and scarce water sources. The topography is marked by the distinct Cejita de los Comancheros and the drainage of Bootleg Canyon, while the eponymous Cottonwood Springs serves as a vital geographic anchor in the southern portion of the quadrangle. High plains water features, including Laguna Tierra Amatosa, Bobby Lake, and Cone Lake, appear alongside seasonal drainages like Pedernal Cr. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the rural road network, specifically Rosebud Rd and Antelope Springs Rd, which connect these remote holdings. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of the Maytum Cem near the western border offers a specific point of interest in an area characterized by its vast, open range.
