2012 Map of Owego

About this map

The West Texas landscape of Pecos County is defined by the extraction of natural resources and sparse ranching infrastructure. Sun Valley Oil Field and Owego Oil Field mark the industrial activity of the region, where a network of access roads and pipelines crosses the arid terrain. The map captures the isolated settlement of Baldridge and landmarks critical to local operations, such as Johnson Windmill, which speaks to the historical importance of water management in this dry environment. This 2012 survey illustrates the contemporary balance between energy production and the expansive, open land characteristic of the Permian Basin area. Connecting these points are long stretches of roadway including Woodward Rd and Owego Rd, which provide the primary transit corridors for the region's scattered industrial and ranching outposts.
