1984 Map of Tip Top Wells

About this map

Antelope Ridge and the surrounding high desert of Lea County dominate this landscape, defined by a mid-century boom in resource extraction. The area shows a transition from traditional ranching to an industrial energy economy, evidenced by the Cruz Oil Field and the numerous Oil Well and Gas Well symbols scattered across the terrain. While older landmarks like Brinninstool Ranch and Allred Well indicate the importance of water and livestock in this arid environment, the emergence of a complex Pipeline network and multiple Gravel Pits reflects the infrastructure required for New Mexico's petroleum development.
