1970 Map of Hillburn City SW

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Morton Field and a network of energy infrastructure define this 1970 landscape in Lea County, New Mexico. The terrain is characterized by industrial development associated with the Permian Basin's mid-century expansion, evidenced by numerous Oil Wells, exploratory Drill Holes, and a major Pipeline traversing the region. These industrial markers sit alongside traditional ranching features, including the West Jim Windmill and Crosbys Windmill, illustrating the dual use of the high plains. Grounded in 1970 surveys with 1982 photogrammetric updates, the map meticulously records the location of every Gravel Pit and water Well, providing a precise look at the land's transition from open range to a productive resource-extraction zone.
