1986 Map of Big Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1993About this map
The Big Lake Oil Field and the surrounding Permian Basin energy landscape dominate this mid-1980s mid-scale study of West Texas. The map illustrates the industrial footprint of petroleum extraction, with extensive networks of access roads and pipelines serving the Stiles Oil Field, Benedum Oil Field, and Ketchum Mountain Oil Field. This resource-driven economy is tied together by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which parallels Highway 67 through a string of settlements including Texon, Santa Rita, and Best.
