About this map

United States Of America Estados Unidos Mexicanos defines the southern reach of this San Diego County quadrangle, marking the international boundary between California and Baja California. The small community of Tierra del Sol serves as the primary settlement hub, situated just north of the border. To the east, the landscape transitions into the high desert character of Jewell Valley, where the terrain begins to slope toward Boundary Cr.

High points such as Rattlesnake Mtn and Boundary Peak overlook a network of local roads including Tierra Real Rd and Alta Vega Rd. These roads provide access to a sparsely populated region characterized by the prominent Tecate Divide. Small bodies of water like Lake Domingo offer a stark contrast to the surrounding ridges, illustrating the essential relationship between elevation and water in this arid borderland environment.
