This 2017 survey reveals a network of rural routes and oil field access roads, including Brininstool Rd, X-L Rd, and Co Rd 21, which cut across the vast section lines. The map highlights the intersection of public land management and industrial activity, documenting the precise township and range boundaries that have organized this part of the Permian Basin for generations.
