2020 Map of Los Medanos

About this map

Livingston Ridge defines the western terrain of this Eddy County landscape, where the high desert meets the infrastructure of the Permian Basin. This survey captures a region primarily defined by its specialized road network and township divisions, centered around the Los Medanos area. Transportation and industrial access are facilitated by significant routes such as WIPP Rd, which services the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant nearby, and Mills Ranch Rd. The map provides a detailed view of the land as it was organized in the early twenty-first century, showing the grid-like precision of local routes including Twin Wells Rd and Cimarron Rd across the sections of t22s r30e and t23s r31e. This documentation is particularly useful for researchers studying the intersection of public lands, ranching history, and modern industrial development in southeastern New Mexico.
