Rio Grand River Gorge

That's about 10 miles NW of Taos, NM. Doesn't have much to do with the Mexican border.

Thanks. It wasn’t real descriptive. But it does give a good idea of a lot of open nothing and rugged terrain.

On the other hand, it looks pretty much like Mariscal Canyon in the Big Bend -- which is a little narrower and a little deeper.

I've canoed Mariscal, though, but I wouldn't attempt The Gorge.
