About this map

Colorado River water systems and early energy infrastructure dominate this West Texas landscape at mid-century. Near the river's winding path through the Cedar Bend and south toward the Colo-Tex Refinery, the map illustrates a network of extraction and transit, featuring an extensive Oil Field, a Tank Farm, and several Underground Pipe Line corridors. The presence of multiple specialized water features, such as Little Blue Hole and Logsdon Reservoir, underscores the vital importance of water management in the arid Shinnery Flats.
