1972 Map of Villegreen

About this map

Villegreen sits at the heart of this high plains landscape in Las Animas County, where the topography is defined by the erosion of the Seven Pocket plateau into deep drainages. The mapping reveals a sparse but deliberate settlement pattern characteristic of the region's ranching history, with numerous fence lines and wells scattered across the terrain. Water sources are critical here, as evidenced by the labeling of multiple Springs and the descent of Plum Canyon Creek and Poitrey Creek toward lower elevations.
