1961 Map of Lindley Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Lindley Ranch is the focal point of this 1961 survey, representing the sparse settlement patterns of Loving County in the early 1960s. The landscape is defined by the early infrastructure of the Permian Basin's energy economy, featuring several Oil Wells and a prominent Pipeline cutting across the terrain. Water management in this arid environment is evident through specifically placed landmarks like North Windmill and South Windmill. Numerous Drill Holes scattered across the map underscore the intensive exploration characteristic of this era. This survey, conducted by the USGS in cooperation with the State of Texas Water Commission, provides a clear record of the intersection between ranching and industrial expansion in one of the most sparsely populated regions of the state.
