About this map

The Curry Co Roosevelt Co boundary bisects this high plains landscape, documenting a sparsely populated region of New Mexico during the mid-1980s. The survey focuses on the infrastructure of land management and resource extraction, prominently featuring the east-west Base Line that serves as a fundamental surveying reference for the territory. The terrain is defined by its agricultural and industrial utility rather than settlement, with numerous Well and Wells sites scattered across the quadrangle to support local needs. Small-scale industrial activity is evidenced by several Gravel Pit locations, which punctuate the landscape and indicate local quarrying efforts. This provisional study by the Geological Survey captures the quiet, utilitarian character of the Llano Estacado region before further modern developments altered these rural county lines.
