1969 Map of Humble City NE

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Wards Draw cuts across this high plains landscape at the intersection of the Texas and New Mexico state line during the late 1960s. The map illustrates a region transitioning from ranching to intensive industrial extraction, anchored by the Tex Pac Oil Field and numerous Oil Wells dotting the terrain. Evidence of earlier infrastructure is present at the Airport (Abandoned), while the modern era is represented by a Substa and an Aqueduct. Local land use is further characterized by the presence of the Waits Ranch and scattered Gravel Pits, providing a detailed view of the Lea, Yoakum, and Gaines county boundaries as they were surveyed in 1969.
