2010 Map of Tercio
USGS Topo · Published 2010About this map
Tercio is the primary settlement on this landscape, positioned where the high-altitude terrain of the Ute Hills meets the headwaters of the South Fork Purgatoire River. The drainage pattern is the dominant feature of this area, with an intricate network of deep-cut drainages such as Left Fork Apache Canyon and Bingham Canyon feeding into the main river system. The presence of the Tercio Mine and Vega Mine near the townsite points to the area's industrial legacy, while water sources like Bingham Lake and Dead Horse Lake punctuate the arid environment. Numerous named canyons, including Lorencito Canyon and Potato Canyon, illustrate the complex erosion patterns that define this section of Las Animas County.
