Dog Mountains dominate the upper half of this remote borderland quadrangle, where the high desert terrain of Hidalgo County meets the international boundary between the United States of America and Estados Unidos Mexicanos. This 2017 survey details the complex topography of the range, including prominent peaks such as Haystack Mtn and the broad upland of Deer Flat. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, with Horse Canyon and the seasonal headwaters of Willow Cr cutting through the arid slopes. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid, showing Township 34 South, Range 15 West and Range 14 West, highlighting the geometric organization of this southwestern New Mexico landscape as it exists at the edge of the nation.
