About this map

The Rio Grande serves as the international boundary on this Chihuahuan Desert landscape, dividing the United States and Mexico. The small settlement of Redford is the primary community on the American side, anchored by Redford Cem and the local road network. To the west, the label for Polvo marks a location along the riverbank connected by El Polvo Rd, reflecting the sparse but enduring settlement pattern of Presidio County.

Topographically, the region is defined by deep incisions through the high desert. Significant drainage features like Bofecillos Canyon, El Calabazar Canyon, and Las Burras Canyon cut toward the river valley. The corridor of FM 170—widely known as El Camino del Rio—follows the river's winding path, providing the essential transit link between these isolated canyon lands and the neighboring border towns.
