1970 Map of Sedan NE

About this map

Carrizo Creek meanders across the high plains of this borderland territory, where the state line between New Mexico and Texas meets the boundary of Union and Dallam counties. The landscape is defined by its agricultural utility and vast open sections, punctuated by the small settlement at Campsey. A network of ranch roads and fence lines connects numerous water sources, primarily marked as wells, which were essential for sustaining livestock in this arid environment. The map provides a detailed look at the 1970s land use in the region, including industrial evidence such as a Gravel Pit and the precise placement of numerous benchmarks and section corners that served the local ranching community.
