About this map

The vast petroleum landscape of the Permian Basin dominates this 1980s map of West Texas. Centered on Garden City, the county seat of Glasscock County, the map reveals a dense network of roads and pipelines serving an extensive Oil Field that stretches across several county lines. To the south, Saint Lawrence serves as a secondary focal point for the agricultural and energy-focused communities in the region.

A complex system of intermittent watercourses, including Mustang Draw and the three forks of Lacy Creek, defines the drainage patterns leading toward the North Concho River and Middle Concho River in the east. Scattered throughout the territory are localized features such as Salt Lake and Dewey Lake, while small settlements like Midkiff, Spraberry, and Bigby Corner mark intersections in this sprawling industrial and ranching environment.
