2019 Map of Walker Canyon

About this map

Hackberry Springs and Alum Spring serve as rare water sources in this drainage-carved landscape on the border of Las Animas and Baca Counties. The terrain is defined by a series of deep cuts, including Walker Canyon, Shell-Rock Canyon, and Burton Canyon, which all feed toward the southeastern flow of Two Butte Creek. Distinctive landmarks like The Windsplitter and The Chimneys suggest a topography of sharp ridges and vertical rock formations. Named features such as Fan Top Tree and the McAfee Godwin Vega reflect the localized heritage of this ranching country, where movement is dictated by the network of county roads like Co RD PP and Co RD 72.
