2011 Map of Kim South

About this map

Kim anchors the northwestern corner of this landscape in Las Animas County, where the small high-plains settlement transitions into a network of draws and mesas. The local geography is defined by the prominent Tecolote Mesa and the deep incisions of Baldy Canyon to the southeast. Waterways such as Tecolote Creek, Saltillo Creek, and West Carrizo Creek carve paths through the arid terrain, illustrating the drainage patterns vital to this ranching region. A sparse but essential network of county roads, including County Rd 197 and County Rd 22.1, connects the outlying acreage to the town center. For those tracing local history or family ties, the Kim Cemetery stands as a primary landmark just north of the town limits, while the various named draws like Couchman Draw provide specific reference points for historical land use and early 21st-century property boundaries.
