1970 Map of Simanola Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Simanola Valley characterizes this high plains landscape of Lea County, where the 1970 topography reveals an environment defined by ranching infrastructure and mineral extraction. The map captures a vital network of family and pasture-named water sources, including the Ninemile Windmill, Badger Windmill, and Shipper Pen Windmill, which were essential for cattle in this arid terrain. Near the Jones Ranch, the land transitions into the industrial footprint of the Ranger Lake Oil Field, marked by numerous drill holes and a significant Pipeline cutting across the southeastern quadrant.
