1970 Map of Bronco

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Bronco sits at the intersection of the state line and a major thoroughfare, serving as a primary point of interest on this high plains borderland. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral Sulphur Springs Draw and a complex network of resource extraction and water management. Scattered throughout the terrain are numerous named windmills such as High Lonesome Windmill, Dillberry Windmill, and Rumph Windmill, which highlight the critical nature of groundwater for ranching operations. To the south, Mexican Hill provides a distinct topographic change near a lone Grave and a local School. The presence of an Oil Field and a Pumping Station indicates the industrial layer of the economy, while specialized features like Oho Tank and a substation point to the technical infrastructure required to sustain the remote settlements along the New Mexico-Texas boundary.
