The Sasabe settlement sits directly on the international border between the United States of America and Mexico, serving as a remote gateway in the southern Altar Valley. This 2021 survey illustrates the stark linear boundary cutting through the high desert landscape, where the rugged peaks of the Pozo Verde Mountains rise to the west. The drainage patterns of La Osa Wash and the Arroyo del Sasabe define the local topography, indicating a landscape shaped by seasonal water flow and cattle ranching history.
