2016 Map of Vilas South

About this map

Vilas sits at the northern edge of this southeastern Colorado landscape, serving as a gateway to the extensive public lands of the Comanche National Grassland. The terrain is defined by the intermittent drainage patterns of Sand Arroyo Cr and Dry Cr, which carve subtle relief into the High Plains. A dense grid of section roads, including Co RD BB and Co RD 36, provides structured access to the livestock grazing and conservation areas that dominate the township boundaries of t31s r45w and t31s r44w. These roads follow the precise Public Land Survey System lines, reflecting the region's history of agricultural settlement and the later transition of marginal farmlands back to protected prairie under federal management.
