About this map

Mescalero Ridge dominates the western half of this Chaves County landscape, forming a sharp escarpment known as The Caprock that divides the high plains from the lower desert floor. This 1973 survey reveals a terrain defined by industrial development and cattle ranching, where numerous Oil Wells and a network of Jeep Trails snake across the arid flats. The map documents the extensive operations within the Caprock Oil Field and the Tulk Oil Field, illustrating the economic reliance on petroleum extraction in the region.
