1966 Map of Huerfano Trading Post SW

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Navajo Miracle Ch stands as a focal point in this high desert landscape of northwestern New Mexico, surrounded by the industrial infrastructure of the late 1960s. The map document reveals a transition between the natural drainage patterns of Alamo Wash and De-na-zin Wash and the expanding energy footprint of the Bisti Oil Field. This era of development is marked by a network of infrastructure including a prominent Pipeline, a Pumping Sta, and numerous scattered extractions such as the G L O No 5 site. The topography is defined by complex arroyos and washes that cut through the terrain, illustrating the interplay between the arid geography of San Juan County and the mid-century push for natural resources. Researchers can find precise locations for several Oil Wells and Drill Holes that dot the landscape during this period of active exploration.
