About this map

The Tunstill Oil Field dominates the southern portion of this landscape in Reeves County, Texas, where a complex network of industrial access roads underscores the region's energy production. Near the southern border, the Pecos River snakes through the terrain, providing a vital water source in an otherwise arid environment. Evidence of ranching history and local landmarks appear at Boyd Ranch to the north and the Gyp Windmill to the east, illustrating how land use in this part of West Texas balances petroleum extraction with traditional pastoral life. Central transit is anchored by Ranch Road 652, which cuts across the lower half of the map, connecting these remote industrial and agricultural sites. Water management features like N Tank further highlight the adaptations required for life and industry in the Trans-Pecos region.
