SHOT 2/9/09 2:17:18 PM - A small village (lower left) and farmlands run up against the Sierra Madre Mountains just outside of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The Sierra Madre Occidental is a mountain range in western Mexico and the extreme southwest of the United States, extending 1500 km from southeast Arizona (south and east of Tucson) southeast through eastern Sonora, western Chihuahua, Durango, Zacatecas, Aguascalientes to Guanajuato, where it joins with the Sierra Madre Oriental and the Eje Volcánico Transversal (Transverse Volcanic Axis) of central Mexico. These mountains are generally considered to be part of the much larger American cordillera. Sierra Madre means "Mother Range"..(Photo by Marc Piscotty / © 2009)
