New Mexico

New Mexico's topography is strikingly diverse, characterized by a mix of high mountain ranges, arid plains, and expansive desert regions. The state is primarily defined by the Rocky Mountains, which run north to south through its central region, featuring peaks that reach over 13,000 feet, such as Wheeler Peak. These mountainous areas are interspersed with deeply forested wildernesses and rugged canyons, contributing to the state’s rich biodiversity. In contrast, the southern and eastern regions transition into vast, semiarid plains, where the landscape is dotted with sagebrush, yucca, and other desert flora. Notable geological features include the dramatic formations of the Malpais badlands and the white gypsum dunes of White Sands National Park. The Rio Grande, which flows through the state, adds to the topographic variation, providing fertile valleys in an otherwise dry environment.
