2013 Map of Tyrone

About this map

Tyrone and Simpson serve as the primary landmarks in this high plains region of Las Animas County, where the landscape is defined by wide expanses and intermittent watercourses. The local geography is shaped by the Van Bremer Arroyo, which feeds into significant water management features like Van Bremer Reservoir Number 1 and Brown Number 1 Reservoir. These reservoirs, along with Browns Lake, highlight the importance of water storage in this semi-arid environment. To the north, the Simpson Cem remains a quiet marker of local genealogy, situated near the Pinon Canyon Airport. The terrain transitions through the Tyrone Flats and Adobe Flats, crisscrossed by a network of county roads like Co RD-101.5 and Co RD-70 that link these remote ranching and grazing lands.
