Diablo Canyon is a short canyon that feeds into the Rio Grande River just north of Santa Fe, NM. I like to imagine the Spanish Conquistadors marching through the canyon in August with all of the gear, thus the name. 
 
This was the inspiration for the 14x11" woodblock "Diablo Canyon Storm" which was featured on the cover of Southwest Art Magazine.
