About this map

Irion and Schleicher County lines bisect this West Texas landscape, defined by the dry watercourses of Dove Creek and Dove Creek Draw. The area represents a specialized industrial corridor during the early 1970s, as evidenced by a dense network of Oil Wells, Gas Wells, and a system of buried Pipelines that traverse the high plateaus. The topography is characterized by intricate contouring that reveals a series of branching draws and ridges, with local nomenclature like Bootleggers Lane hinting at the historical movement through these isolated hills. Beyond the energy extraction sites, a Gravel Pit serves as a marker of local material sourcing in an otherwise sparse and rugged terrain. Updates in the late 1980s illustrate the continued development of this resource-rich sector of the Edwards Plateau.
