1973 Map of Lane Salt Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Lane Salt Lake dominates the northwest corner of this New Mexico landscape, a stark basin set within a territory defined by the cattle and oil industries. The map documents an environment where survival depended on water infrastructure, evidenced by the numerous named windmills including McBride Windmill, Antelope Windmill, and Bull Windmill. These markers, along with the Lane Ranch and McGuffin Ranch, trace the reach of mid-century ranching across the Simanola Valley.
