1971 Map of Brinson Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Monument Draw cuts a distinct path through this West Texas landscape, winding across the high plains of the Llano Estacado. The area is defined by the industrial and ranching activity characteristic of the Permian Basin, where cattle grazing at Brinson Ranch coexists with extensive energy infrastructure. A network of pipelines and numerous drill holes crisscross the terrain, marking the intensification of oil and gas exploration in the early 1970s. The county line separating Gaines and Andrews County bisects the southern portion of the quadrangle, passing through a relatively flat expanse marked only by occasional gravel pits and isolated wells. This survey provides a precise view of a working landscape where traditional ranching meets the technological footprint of the Texas petroleum industry.
