1968 Map of Orla

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The settlement of Orla serves as the focal point for this late 1960s survey of the Trans-Pecos region, situated at the junction of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and the highway. The landscape is defined by the arid, drainage-patterned terrain of the Pecos River basin, which cuts through the northeastern corner near Burro Trap. This era captures the industrial footprint of the region's petroleum economy, prominently featuring an extensive Oil Field and numerous radio towers and tanks that dot the plains.
