About this map

The high plains borderland between Colorado and Kansas is defined here by the intersection of rail infrastructure and intermittent watercourses during the late 1970s. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a diagonal line across the landscape, serving small trackside points like Saunders and Gano. This region, where Baca and Stanton counties meet, is characterized by a sparse settlement pattern that relies heavily on groundwater, indicated by the numerous wells scattered across the terrain.
