About this map

The Canadian River carves a deep path through this section of Colfax County, defining a landscape marked by high plateaus and erosional drainages. The settlement of Taylor Springs sits near the western edge of the quadrangle, serving as a primary point of reference in an area otherwise dominated by extensive land sections and rural road networks. Moving across the terrain, the map reveals the intricate water system of the High Plains, where the Alkali Arroyo and Chico Cr weave between elevated contours.

Local landmarks such as Glaze and Bates provide evidence of rural development alongside water features like Middle Lake and Jaritas Arroyo. The map’s grid, defined by township and range lines like t24n r23e, illustrates the systematic land division characteristic of the American West. This 2013 survey is a detailed record of the physical and man-made features that persist in this high-altitude ranching and riverine environment.
