About this map

Red Lake and the subtle depressions of the Llano Estacado define this portion of Roosevelt County as it appeared in the early 1970s. The landscape is characterized by its wide-open ranching or agricultural character, marked by a systematic grid of section lines and range boundaries including R. 33 E. and R. 34 E. and the township division of T. 4 S. and T. 5 S. infrastructure such as a prominent north-south Pipeline and a scattered Gravel Pit or Water Tank indicate the utility of the land during this era. The topographic survey reveals the high plains terrain, where slight elevation changes around dry or seasonal lake beds provided the only natural landmarks for early residents and land surveyors in this corner of New Mexico.
