The Rio Grande serves as the central focal point of this 2010 survey, demarcating the international boundary between the United States and Mexico. Located along this winding river corridor, the settlement of Las Vegas de los Ladrones sits within a landscape defined by dramatic drainage systems. The map documents significant terrain features such as Reagan Canyon and Big Canyon, which cut through the arid borderlands and illustrate the complex topography that has historically shaped movement and settlement in this region. Evidence of local land use is visible at Horns Ranch, situated near the riverbanks. This 2010 edition by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a modern topographic perspective on a remote stretch of the border where the natural environment remains the dominant force.
