1972 Map of Dora SW

About this map

Industrial activity and resource extraction define this landscape in Roosevelt County during the early 1970s. The terrain is marked by a network of exploration and utility infrastructure, including a prominent Pipeline that cuts across the northern sections of the township. This period of development is evidenced by the numerous Drill Holes and an Oil Well scattered throughout the quadrangle, indicating a focused search for subterranean resources. Benchmark markers such as Wm 4358 and Wm 4401 provide precise topographic reference points across the undulating surface. The map also captures fine-scale agricultural boundaries, noted as selected fence lines, which delineate the rural land use alongside the emerging energy infrastructure. This document serves as a detailed record of the intersections between livestock ranching and the petroleum industry in eastern New Mexico.
