1970 Map of Deep Well Ranch SE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Hackberry Draw and Coyanosa Draw define the drainage patterns of this Pecos County landscape, recorded just before the 1970s. The map illustrates a ranching and extraction economy where water is the most critical resource, marked by specific family-named landmarks like the Cartlege Windmill and Mathews Windmill. These features, along with the Tule Windmill, were essential for sustaining livestock in an arid environment. Industrial activity is also evident through several scattered extraction points, including a Gas Well, a Gravel Pit, and a northern Oil Well. The sparse network of unimproved roads and fence lines shows the expansive nature of the cattle operations here, while the presence of a Drill Hole suggests ongoing exploration of the subsurface resources during this era.
