1970 Map of Barstow 3 NW

About this map

Barrilla Draw winds through this arid expanse of Reeves County, defining the local drainage patterns across a landscape marked by industrial activity and isolated agricultural footprints. In the early 1970s, the area's economy is visibly tied to resource extraction and land management, evidenced by several Gravel Pits and Oil Wells scattered throughout the quadrangle. The presence of Davidson Farm near the southern boundary suggests the persistence of ranching or farming in a territory dominated by intermittent watercourses and technical infrastructure like the WT station. This survey captures a moment of transition where traditional land use and the growing petroleum and mineral extraction industries shared the West Texas terrain.
