2022 Map of Las Vegas De Los Ladrones

About this map

The Rio Grande defines the international boundary on this modern topographical study, carving a sharp line between the United States and Mexico within Brewster County. This reach of the river is protected as the Rio Grande Wild and Scenic River, where the water snakes through deep bends and steep canyon walls. To the west, the Chihuahuan Desert terrain is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Reagan Canyon and Big Canyon. The namesake Las Vegas de los Ladrones sits among the high ridges, overlooking the river valley. The map documents a landscape almost entirely defined by its hydrology and relief, with no established roads or settlements shown, reflecting the enduring isolation of this border wilderness in the 21st century.
