The Mimbres River drainage defines this high-desert corridor along the border of Grant and Luna Counties. The landscape is marked by significant geological formations and early 20th-century water sources, including the thermal waters at Faywood Hot Spring and the distinctive City of Rocks Arch. This area has long served as a passage for ranching and travel, evidenced by the presence of Coleson's Crossing Cem and the settlement at Old Town located south of Taylor Mountain.
