The high plains landscape of the Llano Estacado is defined here by the straight-line border between New Mexico and Texas. This 2023 survey illustrates the sparse, rural nature of the borderlands where Roosevelt County, New Mexico, meets Cochran County, Texas. The terrain is a network of section lines and intermittent lake beds, typical of this arid region. Transportation is anchored by local routes such as FM 595 and S Roosevelt Rd E, which facilitate movement between scattered agricultural holdings. A primary point of interest for genealogists is the Bledsoe Cem, located near the southern boundary in Texas. The map provides a precise look at the modern township and range grid, from t6s r37e to t8s r38e, showing how the land is systematically divided for ranching and farming in the 21st century.
