2023 Map of Spear Hills

About this map

Kiowa National Grassland dominates this high-plains landscape, which straddles the border of Colfax and Harding counties. The terrain is defined by a series of intermittent drainages including Alex Draw, Hubsch Draw, and Spear Draw, which carve through the plateau toward the namesake Spear Hills in the southern portion of the quadrangle. High points such as Chateau Hill overlook a sparse network of ranching roads, reflecting the open-range character of this part of northeastern New Mexico. This survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the modern extent of federally managed grasslands alongside established rural infrastructure like Shaw Ranch Rd and Brockman Rd, illustrating the enduring ranching economy and conserved prairie environment in this section of the High Plains.
