USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The Mentone townsite serves as the hub for this West Texas landscape, documented during a period of significant petroleum activity in the early 1960s. The map illustrates the sprawling Wheat Oil Field and the Two Freds Oil Field dominating the high ground above the winding Pecos River. Industrial infrastructure like the Porterville Pumping Sta and various pipelines reflect the area's economic focus, while the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad tracks skirt the river's path through the Texas Bend.
