2017 Map of Mount Riley SE

About this map

The East Potrillo Mountains rise sharply along the eastern edge of this borderland terrain, casting long shadows over the high desert of Doña Ana County. Positioned directly on the international boundary between the United States of America and Mexico, the landscape is defined by its arid isolation and critical water management infrastructure. Livestock and land management features like Border Tank and Sand Tank are scattered across the scrubland, linked by a sparse network of county thoroughfares including A003 Co Rd and A 05 Co Rd. The presence of the Riley Black Standpipe highlights the essential nature of water storage in this remote corner of New Mexico, where the geometric precision of the Public Land Survey System meets the natural contours of the mountain range.
