Helm Cemetery sits at a junction of desert tracks near the base of Cerro Alto Mountain, serving as a solitary human landmark in this high-desert landscape of El Paso County. The terrain is defined by isolated peaks and ridges, including Naville Mountain, Deer Mountain, and Alacran Mountain, which rise above the surrounding flats. The absence of perennial streams is reflected in the numerous water catchments scattered across the range, such as Lincoln Tank, Dugout Tank, and New Tank.
