1970 Map of McKenzie Lake NW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Huat Oil Field dominates this 1970 landscape in Gaines County, revealing the intensive petroleum development characteristic of the Permian Basin during this era. Scattered across the terrain are numerous Oil Wells, supported by a network of unimproved roads and an intersecting Pipeline. In the southern portion of the sheet, the natural topography is defined by the winding path of the Seminole Draw. This drainage feature provides a stark contrast to the industrial footprint, though even here, the influence of ranching and extraction is evident through features like the Cedar Point Windmill and several Gravel Pits. The map documents a workspace of high-desert industry where fence lines and section corners dictate a rigid geometry over the open Texas plains.
