About this map

Deora and Frick anchor this corner of the High Plains in Baca County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of Two Butte Creek and its many seasonal tributaries. This modern survey illustrates a network of section-line roads and named topographical features that have served local ranching operations for generations. To the north, Snake Arroyo cuts through the terrain, while the southern reaches are marked by the junction of Freezeout Cr and the larger creek system.

Evidence of the area's scarce water resources is highlighted by Alkali Spring and the drainage patterns of Antelope Draw and Arrasmith Draw. These features, alongside Shell Rock Canyon, provide essential landmarks in an otherwise open prairie. The map details the precise township and range boundaries, including t28s r50w and t29s r49w, offering a clear view of the land divisions and remote settlements like Atlanta near the southwestern corner.
