1973 Map of Slager Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Slager Lake and the surrounding desert landscape of Reagan County are defined by industrial infrastructure in this 1970s record of West Texas resource extraction. The map detail centers on a sprawling Oil Field that dominates the terrain, interconnected by a network of service roads and an extensive Pipeline system. While the lake provides a primary natural landmark, the topography is heavily marked by human activity, including numerous Oil Wells and a specific Pumping Sta located near the center of the survey. Scattered Gravel Pits suggest the local materials used to build the transit network required for such a concentrated petroleum operation. This survey offers a precise look at the land use patterns in the Permian Basin at a time when energy development was the primary driver of the local economy and landscape modification.
