About this map

The Franklin Mountains dominate the eastern half of this borderland landscape, rising sharply above the desert floor at prominent points like Anthonys Nose. This 2013 survey illustrates the complex water management systems critical to the Mesilla Valley, featuring the Anthony Lateral and E Drain which support agricultural operations like the River Valley Dairy. The terrain is marked by natural corridors such as Webb Gap and Anthony Gap, providing passage through the high ridges.

In the lower elevations, the community of Anthony spans the landscape near Hacienda Acres, while the northern settlement of Berino remains a distinct hub. For those researching local history or genealogy, the Old Berino Cem is a significant landmark situated near Berino Rd. The map also captures several livestock water sources, including Berino Tank and Beech Tank, which dot the arid stretches between the mountains and the developed valley floor.
