About this map

The Continental Divide winds through the high desert basins of the Bootheel region in the early 1980s, marking a landscape defined by isolated mountain ranges and broad valleys. This arid frontier is punctuated by the vast Playas Lake and the rugged peaks of the Peloncillo Mountains and Big Hatchet Mountains. The mapping reveals a distinct pattern of land use where cattle ranching and mining operations like the International Mine and Gillespie Mine anchor the sparse population.
