2019 Map of Kit Carson NW

About this map

Alfred Camp Spring marks a rare perennial water source in the northeast corner of this high plains landscape in Cheyenne County. The terrain is defined by the ephemeral drainage networks of Bellyache Cr, Pass Cr, and the southward-flowing Wild Horse Cr. This 2019 survey documents a vast, open cattle-country environment where the natural topography is segmented by a precise grid of county roads. The intersection of routes like Co RD CC and Co RD 14 facilitates movement across the township lines of t12s r50w and t13s r49w. The land use appears focused on ranching, as indicated by the various named springs and creek beds that would be critical landmarks for local landholders and agricultural operations.
