2017 Map of Holdup Hollow

About this map

Birkner Hill and the Turner Divide dominate this high-plains landscape in Converse County, where the topography is defined by a network of seasonal draws and creeks. This 2017 survey shows a region largely characterized by ranching and resource management, with small settlements like Blizzard Heights and Highland Flats positioned near critical water sources. The importance of water in this semi-arid environment is evidenced by the numerous named springs and reservoirs, such as White Rock Spring and the Silver Spoon Reservoir. A series of deep drainages, including Martin Spring Draw and Hornbeck Draw, carve through the terrain, illustrating the natural erosion patterns that have shaped the local geography. The presence of Co RD 31 provides the primary transit artery through these ranch lands, connecting the isolated high points like Morris Hill with the surrounding valleys.
