Railroad Mountain rises from the high plains of Chaves County in this late 1970s land survey. The map details an arid landscape defined by its subterranean resources, specifically the Cato Oil Field, which is marked by numerous Oil Wells and a central Pipeline. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the namesake Lone Wolf locality and the nearby McCombe Ranch. Water management is the primary human imprint on the terrain, evidenced by a network of scattered infrastructure including Graves Well, North Tank, and Cooper Well. The map also captures the transition of transportation in the region, featuring a mix of modern roads and established Trails and Jeep Trails that navigate the topographic contours of this ranching and energy-producing territory.
