The Rio Grande defines the international border and the core geography of this desert landscape, where the Rio Grande Village settlement serves as a primary point of human activity. This area is defined by sharp topographic shifts, from the depths of Boquillas Canyon and Hot Springs Canyon to the heights of Ernst Ridge. Evidence of the region's industrial and transit history is preserved in features like the Ore Terminal Aerial Tramway and the winding Old Ore Rd, which navigate the difficult terrain near the river.
