USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Plains serves as the focal point for this Yoakum County survey, positioned at the junction of regional thoroughfares like Old Lovington Road. The landscape is defined by the extensive energy infrastructure of the High Plains, characterized by the sprawling Plains Oil Field and the Brahaney Oil Field. A dense network of drill holes and oil wells punctuates the terrain, revealing the intensity of petroleum extraction in West Texas during the early 1970s.
