1973 Map of Vest Camp

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Vest Camp sits within the high-plains landscape of eastern New Mexico, serving as a primary point of reference in an area defined by ranching and resource exploration. This 1973 survey reveals a terrain marked by scattered water sources like Brooks Tank and the North Windmill, which were essential for maintaining livestock in this arid environment. The presence of numerous Drill Hole locations and a Gravel Pit indicates the geological surveying and extraction efforts common in Chaves County during this era. A network of Jeep Trails provides the only access through the section lines, tracing the movement of ranchers and energy workers across the landscape. The map captures a moment when the transition from traditional grazing to more industrial land use was clearly etched into the local geography.
