2010 Map of Candilla Canyon East

About this map

The Rio Grande serves as the prominent boundary between the United States and Mexico in this southwestern borderlands survey. The landscape is defined by a series of dramatic drainages that cut through the arid terrain, most notably Candilla Canyon and Washboard Canyon. These natural corridors reveal the complex topography of the region, where Son Francisco Creek flows toward the international border. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by a network of ranch roads such as Gatlin Rd and Lower Gatlin Rd which navigate the heights above Seminole Canyon. This map provides a clear view of the geographic isolation and physical obstacles along the river at the start of the 21st century, where Isinglass Canyon wind through the hills.
