1970 Map of Sevenmile Corner

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The arid landscape of Upton County is characterized here by its emerging industrial and ranching infrastructure as it appeared in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The terrain is centered on Sevenmile Corner, where a network of subterranean Pipelines and numerous Drill Holes indicate active energy exploration across the West Texas plains. Water sources are critical to the few established outposts in this environment, evidenced by the Joe Badey Windmill and the Duke Hill Windmill situated near the drainage of China Draw. While the high ground is marked by these industrial survey points, the lower elevations show the occasional Gravel Pit and the remote Tippet Ranch, providing a window into the land use of a region defined by its oil-and-cattle economy.
