2019 Map of Tyrone

About this map

Tyrone sits at the heart of this high plains landscape in Las Animas County, serving as a focal point for a region defined by its wide plateaus and drainage networks. The terrain is characterized by broad expanses like Tyrone Flats and Adobe Flats, where the ground gradually slopes toward the seasonal waters of Van Bremer Arroyo. This 2019 survey documents a landscape that remains sparsely settled, yet connected by an extensive network of county roads such as Co RD 70 and Co RD 56.0. To the northeast, the settlement of Simpson appears alongside the Simpson Cemetery, offering a tangible link to the area's local history. The presence of the Pinon Canyon Airport and the 350 highway indicates the area's role in regional transit, while Browns Lake provides one of the few named water features in this semi-arid environment.
