About this map

Crows Roost overlooks an arid landscape of eastern El Paso County, where the high plains terrain is defined by north-south drainages and a rigid grid of section lines. The drainage of Black Squirrel Creek cuts through the northeast corner of the quadrangle, while Chico Creek meanders through the southwest, illustrating the subtle hydrology of this semi-arid region.

A network of local roads including S Peyton Hwy, S Ellicott Hwy, and Squirrel Creek Road provides access to the dispersed agricultural and ranching properties. These namesake routes, along with smaller lanes like Hobby Horse Ln and Whistling Hills Ln, reveal the continued rural character and modern land-use patterns of the area, preserving traditional township and range divisions such as t15s r63w.
