The Colorado River defines the eastern boundary of this desert landscape, separating the rugged slopes of the Big Maria Mountains from the agricultural expanses of Parker Valley. This 2018 survey documents the intricate riverine geography where Hall Island and Horse Island sit amidst a shifting network of channels and wetlands. The transition from the high, arid terrain near Black Point to the fertile river bottom is marked by local landmarks like Halfway Bend.
