1969 Map of Humble City NE

About this map

Texpac Oil Field dominates the southern landscape of this 1969 survey, where the borderlands of Texas and New Mexico meet. The terrain is defined by the ephemeral drainage patterns of Wards Draw and Wardswell Draw, which cut through a high plains environment dotted with dozens of individual wells and pipelines. This period reflects the intensive petroleum and mineral exploration of the Llano Estacado, evidenced by numerous drill holes and scattered Gravel Pit operations.
