U.S./Mexico Border

Columbus has the unique distinction having New Mexico's only international port of entry open 24 hours daily. At this border crossing between Columbus and Palomas, Chihuahua, Mexico, a quaint Mexican border town, you will pass through the U.S. Port of Entry headquarters, and award-winning $2.6 million building. We didn't drive into Mexico, we just took pictures from the parking lot. On the way back to Deming, NM we had to pass through the border control checkout. I asked how high the fence was and what it was made of, which we found out. The fence is 20' high and is made of steel.
