The rugged Pecos County landscape is defined by the sweeping course of Fourmile Draw and the prominent elevations of Indian Mesa. During the late 1960s, this region was a hub of energy production, evidenced by the extensive Priest Beavers Oil Field and numerous scattered oil wells and drill holes across the plateau. Ranching life persisted alongside this industrial development, with family operations like the Jeff Owens Ranch, Claude Owens Ranch, and Perry Ranch situated in the winding draws and atop the mesas.
