USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
The Mesilla Valley defines the eastern portion of this map, where the Rio Grande is flanked by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the region's agriculture. This system includes the California Lateral, Alamo Drain, and Mesilla Lateral, showcasing how water management has historically shaped the landscape near Mesilla. To the west, the terrain rises sharply away from the riverbed toward the distinctive volcanic profile of Black Mesa and Santo Tomas Mtn, marking a transition from fertile lowland to high desert.
