2023 Map of Double Wells

About this map

The international boundary between the United States and Mexico defines the character of this desert landscape in the southwestern corner of New Mexico. The terrain is marked by the volcanic slopes of Sierra Rica and the drainage of Muscrath Draw, which flows through the arid flats. This modern survey illustrates the sparse human footprint in the borderlands, where the only primary thoroughfare is the remote Hatchet Ranch Rd. A single water resource, Border Tank, serves as a critical landmark for ranchers and travelers in this high-desert environment, while the grid lines of the Public Land Survey System indicate the orderly division of these ranchlands. The map captures a point in time before significant topographic changes, providing a clear record of the intersection between international diplomacy and natural geography.
