The majority of birders will probably just conduct roadside birding along the somewhat less than a one-mile stretch of NM-434 between the two highway signs announcing the community;  those signs may be considered the north and south boundaries of the hotspot. Conifers are prevalent along the western side of NM-434, with deciduous trees and non-native plantings more common on the eastern side. There are not many places to pull off the highway along this stretch, with the exception of the post office just south of the entrance to the Our Lady of Guadalupe church; that entrance is typically closed off by a gate. However, more intrepid birders may walk or drive the quarter-mile loop formed by unpaved roads (known variously as La Plazita, Los Cocas, Coyote, and Coyote Loop roads) through the residential area east of the highway. Exiting this loop in the southeast, it is possible to reach Coyote Creek by traveling east a bit over an eighth of a mile on Coyote Loop Road. That would likely be considered the eastern boundary of the hotspot. 

The hotspot is relatively new, having been established summer 2020. Indeed, the hotspot has only been lightly birded, with a mere 3 lists recorded as of mid-May 2023, including no lists for fall, winter, or early spring.

Guadalupita is a small village in Mora County. It is located on NM-434, about 14 miles north-northeast of Mora, the county seat. The name Guadalupita means "little Guadalupe" in Spanish and refers to the Virgin of Guadalupe, the patron saint of Mexico. Guadalupita is part of the Guadalupita-Coyote Rural Historic District, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017. The historic district includes several buildings and structures that reflect the cultural and agricultural heritage of the area. Guadalupita is also close to Coyote Creek State Park, a popular destination for camping, fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing.
