1973 Map of Romero Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Don Carlos Hills dominate the northern landscape of this high plains region in Union County, where life in the early 1970s was clearly centered on the scarce water sources that sustain livestock and settlement. The map reveals a network of water features critical to the area's survival, including Romero Spring and several other unnamed locations simply marked as Spring. Cultural markers are sparse but significant for local history, including a Cem and a Well located east of the main hills. The presence of a Drill Hole and an area labeled Monte in the southeast suggests a mix of industrial exploration and specific topographical landmarks. This survey, grounded in 1972 aerial photography, provides a clear view of the ranching infrastructure of the era, where fine red dashed lines delineate fence lines across the open range.
