This is a drawing of a map of the United States with marked locations. The drawing features a simplified, outline map of the contiguous United States with sparse, precise points or symbols distributed on the map. These marks likely represent specific sites. The map has a minimalistic style with a white background and a clean, thin, linear style that focuses on these locations within the outlined borders of the country.

There is a white rectangular area with a small dark structure at its center surrounded by natural-looking terrain. The land is divided into sections with dusty beige on the left and upper parts, and darker green textures on the right and lower parts. The overall color palette is muted and earthy, with primarily beige, brown, and dark greens.
