2022 Map of Springfield West

About this map

The high plains of Colorado come into focus on this survey of the western approaches to Springfield. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling expanse of the Comanche National Grassland to the south, where the local drainage basins of Plum Cr, Bear Cr, and Cat Cr have carved subtle relief into the shortgrass prairie. This rural area is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and county roads, including Main St, which serves as a primary east-west artery connecting the isolated ranchlands to the town center. Local history and genealogy researchers will find the Springfield Cem located on the southern edge of the settlement, providing a fixed point for family history studies in this corner of Baca County.
