  • The Rio Grande Gorge runs from northwest to southeast of Taos, New Mexico, through the basalt flows of the Taos Plateau volcanic field. The gorge depth is 800 feet just south of the Gorge Bridge, which spans the gorge ten miles northwest of Taos. The gorge is known for its world class white water, steep pocketed rock climbing, and many ancient and beautiful petroglyphs. Petroglyphs in the gorge have inspired many of the prints and patterns on trinkets, mugs, and t-shirts sold in local shops. At the bottom of the gorge, the Rio Grande is flanked by hidden hot springs and many ruins. The former Chili Line also ran here. The gorge is featured in the film Terminator Salvation.
  • Die Rio Grande Gorge ist eine durch den Rio Grande in den Basalt des Taos Plateaus geschnittene 300 Meter tiefe Schlucht ca. 15 km nordwestlich von Taos (New Mexico). Bekannt ist die Schlucht insbesondere durch heiße Quellen an ihrem Grund sowie durch zahlreiche Petroglyphen. Über die Rio Grande Gorge spannt sich die Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. An den Abhängen der Schlucht wachsen Populationen von Echinocereus triglochidiatus HK 1296, die als winterharte Kakteen in Deutschland zahlreiche Liebhaber gefunden haben.
