2013 Map of Springfield West

About this map

The southeastern High Plains of Springfield, Colorado, are defined by a network of intermittent drainage and sprawling range land. In the early 21st century, the landscape is bisected by US Hwy 160, which runs along the northern edge of the Comanche National Grassland. The town's western outskirts are anchored by the Baca County Fairground and the Springfield Cem, reflecting the civic and memorial history of this agricultural hub. The terrain is marked by the seasonal paths of Plum Creek, Bear Creek, and Cat Creek, which carve gentle draws across the landscape. Away from the town center, isolated sites like the McEndree Ranch and a grid of county roads, such as Co Road 24, illustrate the enduring rural settlement patterns of Baca County.
