The settlement at Lambert and the nearby Cejita Cemetery serve as the primary human focal points in this high plains landscape. Water management defines the geography, as evidenced by a remarkable density of named windmills scattered across the terrain. These landmarks, including the Harris Windmills, Sheep Fence Windmill, and Little Johnny Windmill, suggest a history of ranching and livestock operations where groundwater was essential.
