About this map

The international boundary between the United States of America Estados Unidos Mexicanos anchors this 1990s revision of the borderlands south of Strauss. This desert landscape is defined by the transition from the arid uplands down into the fertile Mesilla Valley, where water management infrastructure like the Crawford Lateral and West Drain supports agricultural activity. Near the state line between New Mexico and Texas, the map shows the development of the Dona Ana County at Santa Teresa Airport and nearby educational facilities like Santa Teresa Jr High Sch. Transportation history is layered here, with the active Southern Pacific line running parallel to an Old Railroad Grade. Small settlements and landmarks, including Mastodon and various wells, are scattered across the terrain, illustrating the sparse but deliberate footprint of human activity in this corner of Doña Ana County.
