About this map

Stonewall and the striking geologic formation known as The Stonewall anchor this high-altitude landscape in Las Animas County. The settlement is situated near Stonewall Gap, where the Middle Fork Purgatoire River cuts through the prominent ridge. Local history and genealogy are centered around the Stonewall Cem and the residential layout along Cemetery Rd and Pine Dr.

Water management is a central theme, evidenced by the Maxwell Ditch Number 19 and 20 and Russell Reservoir providing for the Stonewall Valley. Much of the western terrain is protected within the San Isabel National Forest, featuring remote areas like Duling Park and Wilkens Park. High-elevation water bodies, including North Lake and Schaffer Lake, are fed by a network of drainages such as Brown Cr and Whiskey Cr.
