1985 Map of Pleasant Hill NE

About this map

The High Plains landscape along the New Mexico-Texas state line is defined by the ephemeral winding path of Frio Draw. In the mid-1980s, this border region between Curry County and Parmer County was characterized by a high density of agricultural wells and scattered windbreaks. The topography is relatively flat, typical of the Llano Estacado, though the terrain descends toward the drainage basin of the draw. A lone Radio Tower stands as a prominent man-made landmark in this sparse ranching and farming territory. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the region before modern expansion, showcasing a grid of section lines and water management points that sustained the local economy during this era.
