2013 Map of Seminole Canyon

About this map

Amistad Reservoir dominates this borderland landscape where the Rio Grande carves through the limestone of the Chihuahuan Desert. This 2013 survey illustrates the complex geography of the international boundary, highlighting the flooded canyons and protected lands that define the region. Cultural and recreational preservation is central to the area, evidenced by the presence of Seminole Canyon State Park and the expansive Amistad Ntl Rec Area. The map details the intricate fingers of the reservoir as they reach into side drainages like Seminole Canyon and Pink Cave Cove. Transportation in this arid environment is limited to significant corridors such as US Highway 90 and local access routes including State Park Rd 67 and Zubenbueler Ranch Rd, which provide the only terrestrial links through this river-cut terrain.
