About this map

Deora sits at a remote crossroads in Baca County, characterized by a vast drainage network that cuts through the high plains landscape. This 2022 survey captures a sparsely settled region where small named localities like Frick and Atlanta mark the intersection of county roads such as Co RD 6 and Co RD SS. The terrain is defined by dramatic erosional features, including Shell Rock Canyon and Antelope Draw, which channel seasonal water toward Two Butte Creek.

The presence of Alkali Spring near the eastern edge of the quadrangle suggests the alkaline nature of the local water table, a common trait in this portion of the Colorado prairie. To the north, Snake Arroyo and Cottonwood Cr further illustrate the intricate hydrology of the area. This map provides a detailed look at the land division and transportation grid that continues to support the ranching economy of southeastern Colorado.
