2010 Map of Eagle Mountains SW OE S

About this map

The Rio Grande flows through the extreme northeastern corner of this area, marking the international boundary between the United States of America and Estados Unidos Mexicanos. This 2010 topographic representation of the borderlands south of the Eagle Mountains emphasizes the open, arid geography where the river serves as the primary landmark. While the majority of the quadrangle covers the desert landscape of Chihuahua, the presence of the Rio Grande provides a critical orientation point for understanding the physical divide between Texas and Mexico. The map reflects a modern surveying era, utilizing data from the National Hydrography Dataset and the National Elevation Dataset to document the subtle shifts in the river's path and the surrounding terrain of the northern border region.
