1970 Map of Tatum North

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Tatum sits at the southern edge of this survey, serving as a hub for the surrounding ranching and oil country of Lea County during the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by the high plains of eastern New Mexico, where water management is critical to local survival and industry. A dense network of windmills, such as the North Schelling Windmill, Dempster Windmill, and West Berryhill Windmill, are scattered across the terrain to tap the underground aquifers.
