1972 Map of Painted Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Purgatoire River meanders through this portion of Las Animas County, carving deep topographic relief into the landscape. This 1970s survey documents the complex drainage network of the high plains, where numerous arroyos and canyons such as Van Bremer Arroyo and Luning Arroyo feed into the main river channel. The winding course of the water is framed by steep elevations, most notably within Painted Canyon and along the prominent ridge known as The Hogback.
