2010 Map of Corner Well

About this map

The international border between the United States of America and Mexico bisects this arid stretch of the Chihuahuan Desert. Centered on a remote boundary crossing, the landscape is defined by its isolation and limited human footprint. Corner Ranch stands as the primary namesake settlement in this corner of New Mexico, situated near the intersection of local ranch roads that navigate the sparse terrain. To the northwest, the land rises toward the distinct elevation of Haystack Mountain, providing a rare geographic landmark in an otherwise open expanse. The survey illustrates the functional reality of this borderland, where the proximity of international boundaries and high-desert ranching converge in a quiet, transborder environment.
