2023 Map of Guadalupe Pass

About this map

Guadalupe Pass serves as a critical geographic gateway in this arid high-desert landscape where the Guadalupe Mountains meet the Peloncillo Mountains. This 2023 survey illustrates the stark terrain of the Bootheel region, defined by its complex drainage systems and the international border between the United States and Mexico. The importance of water management in this cattle-ranching environment is underscored by the presence of isolated water sources like Garcia Tank, Corral Tank, and Clark Tank. These features represent essential infrastructure for navigating and working the arid basins that stretch across the borderlands. The map provides a precise look at the township and range divisions, such as t34s r21w, within Hidalgo County's southern reaches.
