2010 Map of Paduca Breaks NW
USGS Topo · Published 2010About this map
Cotton Place and the surrounding high desert of Lea County are defined by energy extraction and remote transportation networks in this 2010 survey. The landscape is primarily organized around industrial infrastructure, specifically the Double X Oil Field to the northeast and the Paduca Oil Field further south. These fields are connected by a sparse grid of maintained routes, including Orla Rd and County Rd-1. Water is a scarce and vital resource in this arid region, marked here by Jack Tank near the northern boundary. The map illustrates the specialized development of the Permian Basin, where the layout of roads like County Rd-186 and County Rd-31 is dictated more by well access and pipeline corridors than by traditional town centers.
