About this map

Flying M Ranch sits at the center of this 2010 survey of Lea County, New Mexico, where a network of section roads and oil infrastructure defines the high plains landscape. The region’s economic character is visible through the Tobac Oil Field to the north and the Flying M South Oil Field further south, illustrating the density of energy extraction in this part of the state.

Transport and property access are dominated by a grid of routes including County Rd-43 and County Rd-170, which cut across the open terrain. A uniquely named landmark, Mill on the Fence, provides a specific point of interest for researchers tracking local property features or historical livestock infrastructure. The map captures the quiet intersection of ranching and industry in the early 21st century.
