About Cottonwood Hills

The Cottonwood Hills are a small mountain range located in the southwestern corner of New Mexico. The range rises gradually from the surrounding desert, with gentle, rolling hills covered in piñon pine and juniper forests. The terrain is mostly moderate, with a few steeper slopes and rocky outcroppings. The hills offer scenic vistas of the surrounding Chihuahuan Desert landscape, including the distant Gila and Sacramento mountain ranges.
