About this map

Portales Valley defines the southern portion of this mid-1980s landscape in Roosevelt County. The area is characterized by an extensive network of groundwater extraction, with numerous wells scattered across the undulating terrain. This spatial pattern suggests a heavy reliance on subterranean water sources for the region's agricultural or industrial operations during this period. The map's contour lines and well placements provide a clear indication of the local topography and the human efforts to utilize the resources within the valley. As a provisional map, it offers a distinct look at the land's utility and the survey data collected at that specific point in time before further development or geological shifts occurred.
