Northern Mexico is dominated by the Sonoran and Chihuahuan deserts, which belong to the much greater North American Desert, which also includes the Mojave and Great Basin deserts.
As for mountains, there are many of them, as Mexico is traversed by the Sierra Madre Occidental, Sierra Madre Oriental and Sierra Madre del Sur mountain ranges. Some mountains include the Pico de Orizaba, Popocatepetl, Ixtaccihuatl, Nevado de Toluca and La Malinche; all of them have more than 4,400 meters (14,500 ft) of height.
