About this map

Comanche National Grassland dominates this high plains landscape in southern Colorado, where the terrain is defined by a series of south-reaching drainages. This 2013 survey records the relief of the region through several named geographic depressions, including Moore Draw, Mitchell Draw, Murray Draw, and Burrows Draw. These seasonal watercourses carve through the landscape, providing the primary topographies for an otherwise level section of the county.

A strictly organized grid of county roads, such as CO Road G and CO Road 36, provides access to the expansive public lands and private holdings. On the eastern edge of the quadrangle, Mt Carmel Cem stands as a significant historical marker for the local community. Further south, North Picket House Draw cuts through the township boundaries, reflecting the area's history of cattle ranching and homesteading on the open range.
