2012 Map of Dew Drop Creek

About this map

The Nena Lucia Oil Field defines the industrial footprint of this West Texas landscape, where the petroleum economy overlays a network of seasonal watercourses. The drainage system is characterized by the branching paths of Dew Drop Cr and Big Silver Cr, which cut through the arid terrain of Nolan County. Landmarks like Eagle Point and Silver Lake provide essential geographic orientation in a region largely defined by its wide-reaching ranch roads and energy production sites. Sparse but significant features such as Deadman Spring indicate the critical importance of water sources in this environment, while local routes like Co RD 273 connect the scattered infrastructure. The map reveals the intricate intersection of natural hydrology, including Cottonwood Cr and Yellow Wolf Cr, with the man-made developments required for resource extraction.
