1970 Map of Alston Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Ranger Lake and the surrounding Oil Field characterize this corner of Lea County, where industrial infrastructure meets the traditional ranching landscape of the Llano Estacado. The map reveals a complex network of resource extraction and water management, noted by a pervasive Pipeline system and numerous family-named landmarks. The reliance on groundwater is evident through a distribution of cattle-rearing infrastructure, including the Old Dipping Vat Windmill, Sartin Windmill, and Goat Windmill.
