1985 Map of Meadow SE

About this map

The High Plains landscape along the Terry Co and Lynn Co line is defined by its deep agricultural and resource-extraction footprint as recorded in this 1980s-era study. The small settlement of Lakeview stands as the primary community node in an area otherwise characterized by a dense grid of thousands of wells, reflecting the region's intensive groundwater and oil-and-gas development. The terrain is largely level, though it is punctuated by subtle elevation changes such as the prominent Bluff 3294. This survey offers a precise record of the human modification of the Llano Estacado, where the repetition of labels reveals the scale of subsurface industry that has historically powered the local economy.
