USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Salado Draw Oil Field and El Mar Oil Field dominate this desert landscape straddling the New Mexico-Texas border in the early 1970s. Industrial development is heavy throughout the terrain, marked by a dense network of drill holes, pipelines, and gas wells that intersect the arid topography. The map reveals the critical infrastructure of the era's energy sector, including various gravel pits and a jeep trail that provided access to the remote drilling sites.
