1970 Map of Tatum South

About this map

Tatum and the nearby settlement of McDonald anchor this 1970 landscape, which illustrates the intersection of ranching traditions and modern infrastructure in Lea County. The terrain is characterized by broad stretches of the Llano Estacado, where essential water sources like Camps Windmill, Keenum Windmill, and Hardrock Windmill are scattered along the natural drainage of Eightmile Draw. These windmills, often named for local ranching families, served as vital landmarks for survival and navigation across the high plains.
