The United States and Mexico border bisects this arid landscape, showing the international boundary as it appeared in the late 2010s. This desert region is defined by the sharp elevations of the Sierra Arida and the Cabeza Prieta Mountains, which dominate the northern and central portions of the quadrangle. These peaks overlook the wide expanse of the Tule Desert, a terrain where water sources are scarce and critical for survival in the Sonoran environment.
