1973 Map of Upton

About this map

Upton serves as the quiet center of this 1970s Roosevelt County landscape, where the high plains terrain is etched by the Cañada del Tule. The map illustrates a region defined by agricultural parcels and livestock management, with fine dashed lines representing fence lines that crisscross the land. Along the Upton Road, evidence of the local infrastructure and industry appears through several drill holes and a Gravel Pit, pointing toward the subsurface resource exploration of the era. For those tracing family histories in the area, the inclusion of the Upton Cem provides a specific point of reference within this rural community. The drainage of Tule and the surrounding topography indicate a landscape where water management and elevation were critical to the isolated homesteads and ranching operations of the mid-20th century.
