About this map

Burnt Mill serves as a central landmark in this drainage-rich portion of Pueblo County, where the Saint Charles River cuts through the high plains. The landscape is defined by a dense network of seasonal waterways and irrigation infrastructure, including the Pollard Ditch and numerous named arroyos such as Stinking Arroyo. The topography rises toward Muldoon Hill in the northwest, which overlooks Wales Canyon and the headwaters of Muldoon Cr.

A complex grid of county roads, such as Co RD 230 and Waterbarrel Rd, provides access across the various townships. This modern survey illustrates the persistent importance of water management in the region, evidenced by the proximity of Stinking Spring to Muddy Cr. The transition from the river bottom to the high ground of Turtle Butte Rd highlights the varied relief that characterizes this section of the Colorado front range foothills.
