2012 Map of Marlboro Canyon

About this map

Marlboro Canyon and its surrounding high plains landscape define this section of Upton County, where a network of industry-linked infrastructure supports the region's energy and ranching sectors. The terrain is marked by significant petroleum activity, notably at the Willrode Oil Field, Heluma Oil Field, and King Mountain Oil Field. This infrastructure is complemented by a series of specialized landmarks like the Eighthundred Acre Windmill and Eddelman Windmill, which speak to the essential water management required in this arid environment. Transportation across the territory is facilitated by a grid of rural routes including Ranch Road 2463, Road 495, and Hunt Oil Rd, which connect the scattered oil operations and grazing lands to the larger regional trade network.
