About this map

Industrial energy production and sparse desert landmarks characterize this corner of the Permian Basin as it appeared in the early 21st century. The landscape is dominated by the Winkler County Oil Field and the Magnolia Sealy Oil Field, which are crisscrossed by a dense network of service roads such as Co RD-401 and Blockline Rd. This infrastructure underscores the area's continued reliance on petroleum extraction.

Scattered among the drilling sites are several named water features essential for ranching and industry, including the Red Tank Windmill, Three Corner Windmill, and Wildcat Windmill. These landmarks, along with others like the Sun Windmill and North Windmill, serve as primary navigational points in an otherwise repeating grid. The map also traces the path of Ranch Road 1219 as it connects this resource-rich terrain to the wider region.
