1971 Map of Paynes Corner SE

About this map

The West Texas energy landscape of the early 1970s is clearly defined on this survey, where the extraction industry shapes the local geography. Large-scale operations are anchored by the Doss Robertson Oil Field in the north and the Fullerton Oil Field in the south, both characterized by dense networks of wells, tanks, and pipelines. Running through the southern portion of the sheet is the Gaines Co Andrews Co border, which cuts across the natural drainage of Monument Draw. An extensive Aqueduct system and scattered infrastructure like the Gravel Pit highlight the utilitarian nature of this high plains terrain, where water management and mineral rights dictated the development of the land.
