About this map

Picketwire Valley dominates the northern corner of this landscape, where the Purgatoire River meanders toward the northeast. This 2010 USGS survey illustrates the complex irrigation and drainage network essential to Colorado ranching, featuring the Highland Canal and numerous drainage features like Smith Draw and Farrington Draw. The settlement pattern is sparse, defined by large agricultural holdings such as the Hackamore Ranch.

A network of numbered county roads provides the primary infrastructure across this terrain, connecting remote points of interest like the J J Windmill. The topography is marked by significant natural carvings, including Rock Arroyo, Tarbox Arroyo, and Mixon Canyon, which channel water toward the river system. The map serves as a detailed record of land use and water management in this part of Bent County.
