Yeso serves as the primary hub of this high plains landscape in De Baca County, concentrated around the corridor of Us-60 E. The settlement is anchored by a local Po and is surrounded by a network of county roads that connect remote homesteads and grazing lands. The grid-like survey lines of t3n r22e and t2n r23e organize the territory, which includes the small community of Evanola and established agricultural outposts like Hisel Ranch and Long Ranch. For those researching local family history, the Yeso Cem is clearly marked south of the main town site. The landscape is defined by its infrastructure of named routes such as Dunlap Rd and Angus Rd, illustrating the spatial relationship between these isolated rural settlements and the vital East-West highway that links them.
