2010 Map of Whitewater Mountains

About this map

Antelope Wells stands as a primary landmark in this desolate border region where the southwestern United States meets the Estados Unidos Mexicanos. The map documents a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and essential water catchments, such as Highway Tank and Boogs Defeat Tank, which supported travel and ranching in the arid environment. The terrain is dominated by the Whitewater Mountains and the Smuggler Hills, with Granite Pass providing a natural corridor through the upland topography. To the east, the flat expanse of the Playas Valley contrasts with the western ridges. This 2010 survey illustrates the isolation of the international boundary line, showing the infrastructure of the border crossing at Antelope Wells against the vast, open drainages of Deer Creek.
