Rio Grande river flows through Santa Elena Canyon in Big Bend National Park
The Rio Grande River originates in the San Juan Mountains of south-central Colorado.  It flows 1,896 miles through Colorado, New Mexico and Texas where it is the international border between the United States and Mexico.  It eventually empties into the Gulf of Mexico.  In northern New Mexico the river flows 50 miles through a tectonic chasm known as the Rio Grande Gorge.  In 2013 the gorge and 242,500 acres of surrounding land was designated as the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument.  This fall scene was photographed in the gorge south of Taos, New Mexico, USA.

The New Cornelia open-pit copper mine has a rich history in the mining industry of the southwestern United States.  The New Cornelia Mine traces its roots back to 1909 when a geologist named John Boddie identified significant copper deposits in the Ajo, Arizona area. The New Cornelia Copper Company was formed in 1916 to develop these deposits, and mining operations began in earnest.  Over the ensuing decades, the New Cornelia Mine underwent significant expansion as demand for copper surged, particularly during periods of war and industrial growth. The mine's open-pit operation became one of the largest of its kind in the United States, producing vast quantities of copper ore.  By the latter half of the 20th century, the New Cornelia Mine faced challenges including declining ore grades, increasing operating costs, and environmental regulations. In 1983, the mine owners announced the closure of the mine due to these factors, marking the end of an era for one of Arizona's most significant copper producers.  While the New Cornelia Mine is no longer operational, its legacy continues to be felt in the area, both in terms of its historical significance and the ongoing efforts to address the environmental legacy of mining activities.  This scene of the mine was photographed from the Ajo Scenic Loop near Ajo, Arizona, USA.

The Granite Dells are a geological feature characterized by exposed granite rock formations that have been sculpted by wind and water over millions of years into unusual shapes and patterns.  The term “dells” refers to the valleys or low areas between the granite formations.  Nestled among these natural wonders lies Watson Lake, a reservoir formed in 1915 when early settlers dammed Granite Creek. This juxtaposition of geological history and human intervention creates a serene oasis, inviting visitors to ponder the passage of time and marvel at the forces of nature.  Watson Lake and the Granite Dells are in Prescott, Arizona, USA.
