About this map

Ingram Cem and the Foust-Hilburn Ranch sit on a landscape defined by the search for water and energy along the border of Roosevelt and Chaves counties. This high plains region in the early 1970s shows a infrastructure of ranching and early petroleum extraction, evidenced by the Walking Beam Wells and a network of named water sources like Lake Well and Tolar Well. The topography is subtly marked by the South Fork White Draw, which provides a rare drainage feature in an area otherwise dependent on artificial catchments like Elkins Tank. Transportation is limited to a primitive Jeep Trail and unnamed service roads, while a subterranean Pipeline cuts across the southern sections of the quadrangle. Windmills, such as the South Jett Windmill and Johnson Windmill, appear as isolated but critical landmarks for navigation and local ranching operations in this arid expanse.
