2012 Map of Eunice NE

About this map

The Elliott Littman Oil Field dominates the northern landscape of this Lea County region, illustrating the deep-seated connection between the local economy and petroleum extraction. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey reveals a high-desert environment characterized by a sparse but functional network of roads such as Wallach Ln, Nw 9999, and Co Rd 9701. Water remains a vital but limited resource in this arid terrain, marked specifically at Baker Spring. The topography is generally subtle, punctuated by natural landmarks like Windmill Hill, which provide orientation across the expansive plains of the Permian Basin. The map's layout reflects the industrial organization of the territory, where lease roads and utility corridors serve the energy sector rather than traditional residential settlements.
