1985 Map of Greenwood Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Querecho Plains dominate this southeastern New Mexico landscape, revealing a region defined by extensive natural resource extraction in the mid-1980s. The topographic detail captures a network of infrastructure across the desert floor, where large Oil Field and Oil and Gas Field operations intersect with the dry terrain. The presence of the Eddy Co Lea Co boundary line suggests the administrative importance of this area for energy production and land management. While the namesake Greenwood Lake appears as a focal water feature, the surrounding land is marked by numerous industrial sites, including several Gravel Pits. This provisional survey serves as a precise record of the industrial footprint and arid geography just before the late 20th-century expansion of the Permian Basin's energy infrastructure.
