1985 Map of Monument South

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Monument sits at the northern edge of this high desert landscape, characterized by the extensive development of the Oil Field that dominates the central and southern portions of the terrain. The presence of numerous tanks and wells interspersed among the section lines reveals an intensive industrial extraction period in the mid-1980s. Natural drainage is represented by Monument Draw, which snakes through the arid ground, providing a geographic contrast to the rigid grid of survey boundaries and service roads. This provisional survey provides a clear view of the petroleum infrastructure of Lea County, capturing the dense network of tanks and unimproved roads essential to the region's energy economy.
