1972 Map of Dora NW

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The high plains of Roosevelt County are defined here by a sparse, industrial landscape of resource extraction and water management. Red Lake serves as a central landmark in this arid terrain, where the topography is meticulously detailed with five-foot contour intervals. This 1970s-era survey highlights the expansion of infrastructure across the Llano Estacado, including a prominent Pipeline cutting through the southern sections and numerous subterranean assets marked as Well and Drill Hole. The presence of several Gravel Pits and a central Water Tank suggests a working landscape focused on ranching and energy exploration. For the local historian or geologist, the map provides a clear record of the physical modifications made to this prairie environment before later developments in the region.
