2017 Map of Double Wells

About this map

The United States of America - Estados Unidos Mexicanos border bisects this arid stretch of Hidalgo County, capturing the remote geography where New Mexico meets Chihuahua. Settlement is sparse, anchored by Sierra Rica in the north and the Double Wells locale to the south. The terrain is defined by the Hachita Valley and the seasonal drainage of Muscrath Draw, reflecting a landscape where water management was central to survival. Features like Border Tank and the path of Hatchet Ranch Rd indicate the ranching infrastructure and boundary maintenance common to this high-desert frontier. The map provides a detailed view of the cadastral divisions of t29s r14w, t30s r14w, and t31s r14w, illustrating how the Public Land Survey System abruptly terminates at the international line.
