1973 Map of Dallas Store NW

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The high plains of Lea County are defined here by a massive industrial infrastructure dedicated to petroleum extraction during the early 1970s. The landscape is dominated by the Bagley North Oil Field, Bagley West Oil Field, and the broader Bagley Oil Field, characterized by an extensive network of pipelines, pumping stations, and numerous oil wells. This concentration of energy production is punctuated by remote livestock operations such as Acrey Ranch, Medlin Ranch, and the Four Lakes Ranch near the Four Lakes water feature. A notable local landmark, the Dallas Store, sits at a road junction in the northwest, serving as a rare point of commerce. The terrain transition into the Simanola Valley in the east is marked by specialized ranching improvements, including the Goat Windmill and Meadow Windmill, which highlight the continued importance of water management in this arid region.
