The Canadian River carves a deep, serpentine path through the high plains of northeastern New Mexico, defining the borders where Mora, Colfax, and Harding Counties meet. This 1970s landscape is dominated by the sprawling Jaritas Ranch and a complex network of side canyons, including Pup Canyon, Dog Canyon, and Lodge Canyon, which drain into the river's entrenched valley. A significant historical marker is the Old Railroad Grade winding through the northeastern corner, indicating a former rail corridor that once linked this cattle country to broader markets.
