Ruidosa Hot Springs and the surrounding high desert of Presidio County are defined by a network of seasonal drainages and isolated ranching outposts. The landscape is marked by prominent topographic features such as Cerro Pardo and Cleveland Peak, where elevation changes dictate the flow of Hot Springs Creek and Arroyo Sanguijuela. Human activity in this arid environment is centered on the availability of water and minerals, evidenced by the Loma Plata Mine in the northern reaches and the thermal waters near Hot Springs Rd.
