Midway Lane Oil Field and the Elkhorn Oil Field define the industrial footprint of this Crockett County landscape during the first decade of the 21st century. The map depicts a territory where the economy is driven by energy extraction, with a grid of service roads and well sites etched into the arid terrain. Natural drainage follows the path of Howard Draw and its East Fork Howard Draw, which cut through the open country. Local transportation is centered on Co RD 205, providing the primary access through this sparsely populated region. This survey captures a specific moment in the evolution of the West Texas oil industry, illustrating how modern infrastructure overlays the natural arroyo systems of the Edwards Plateau.
