About this map

The West Texas High Plains are defined by the intensive energy and resource infrastructure visible at the boundary of Yoakum Co Terry Co during the early 1970s. The small settlement of Tokio serves as a central hub in a landscape otherwise dominated by industrial extraction, notably within the Prentice Oil and Gas Field. This era of development is marked by a complex network of pipelines and a local Pumping Sta, which supported the regional oil economy across the flat, semi-arid terrain. Scattered Gravel Pits indicate active construction and road maintenance alongside the section-line roads. The map reveals the systematic subdivision of the Llano Estacado, where the grid-like distribution of oil wells and utility lines reflects a highly managed approach to land use and mineral rights characteristic of the South Plains.
