The Rio Grande marks the international boundary between the United States and Mexico in this arid reach of West Texas. The landscape is defined by deeply incised drainage systems, including Shafter Canyon, Britton Canyon, and Jabalina Canyon, which cut through the Shafter Hills toward the river. Much of the river corridor is protected as part of the Rio Grande Wild and Scenic River, preserving the character of this borderland.
