2010 Map of Pyote East

About this map

Wickett and the eastern edge of Pyote define the human landscape of this West Texas Permian Basin corridor during the early 21st century. The map illustrates an economy deeply rooted in energy extraction, dominated by the extensive grids of the South Sealy Oil Field and the Wickett South Oil Field. This industrial infrastructure is superimposed over a desert landscape where water management remains critical, evidenced by the presence of the Monument Pond Dam and Monument Pond situated along Monument Draw. Beyond the primary settlements, the land is marked by isolated landmarks like the Half h Windmill and Tie Ranch, reflecting the area's dual identity as both an oil-producing hub and a traditional ranching territory. Transportation is anchored by the primary corridor of State Spur 57, which links these small communities across the arid terrain.
