Fig. 1Rio Grande at desert dusk
A remote desert bend of the Rio Grande, with limestone canyons, isolated Chisos mountains, and a dark, empty sky.
Santa Elena Canyon walls rise 1,500 feet above a thin green river. The Chisos are a sky-island forest in a sea of creosote. Nights here are among the darkest in the lower 48.
