2016 Map of Benge Corner SW

About this map

Upton County ranching lands and oil field access routes define this corner of West Texas in the mid-2010s. The landscape is structured by a rectilinear grid of property boundaries and service roads, most notably FM 1492 which provides the primary north-south transit through the area. Local connectivity is maintained through a network of county roads including Co Rd 308 and Co Rd 309, which likely serve the scattered energy infrastructure and agricultural interests common to this region. The terrain is marked by gentle topographic variations and ephemeral wetland features, characteristic of the Permian Basin's high plains. These survey details from the U.S. Geological Survey record the modern road network, including Co Rd 310, before further industrial development or land use changes occurred.
