1970 Map of Sedan NE

About this map

Carrizo Creek meanders through the high plains of the New Mexico Texas border, cutting a distinct drainage through the otherwise uniform topography of the High Plains. Surveyed in 1970, this region is characterized by its isolation and the critical importance of groundwater, evidenced by the numerous Well and Wells sites scattered across the sections. The settlement of Campsey stands near the State Line, marking a quiet outpost where the boundary between Union Co and Dallam Co meets the interstate division. The mapping of numerous fence lines across the quadrangle reflects the deeply established ranching culture of the Llano Estacado during the mid-20th century, where land use was defined by vast acreage and the struggle for water in an arid environment.
