About this map

Eagle Nest sits at the gateway to the high-country landscape of the Cimarron Range in this modern topographic survey. The area is defined by the sharp transition between the wide floor of the Moreno Valley and the steep elevation of Touch-Me-Not Mountain. To the north, the historic location of Virginia City along Willow Creek remains a point of interest for those tracing the mining and ranching heritage of Colfax County.

Water management and recreation are central to the landscape, from the expansive Eagle Nest Lake to the engineered Gravel Pit Lakes in the east. The map documents the intricate drainage systems of Ute Creek and the Cimarron River, while marking cultural sites like the Jackson Cem and the sprawling territory of the Philmont Scout Ranch. Ranching footprints are evident at the Atmore Ranch, situated near the rugged path of Sawmill Canyon.
