1972 Map of Humbar Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Chacuaco Canyon and Poitrey Canyon dominate this Las Animas County landscape, where water and topography dictated the sparse footprint of human activity in the early 1970s. The intricate network of drainage, including Tobe Creek and Bachicha Creek, reveals how natural corridors shaped movement through the canyonlands. Evidence of remote ranching or seasonal habitation appears at Linder Camp, while the namesake Humbar Spring serves as a vital water source in this arid terrain. A solitary Grave located near Humbar Canyon provides a poignant connection to the individuals who lived in this isolated region. The presence of several Jeep Trails and distinct landmarks like Heart Rock underscores the difficulty of the terrain, where named features like Bar Four Pocket and Seven D Pocket likely reflect early land use or grazing boundaries.
