State Road 293 (NM 293), also known as Box Canyon Road, is a state highway in Grant County, New Mexico, United States, that heads north-northeast from New Mexico State Road 211 (NM 211) in Cliff.
Route description NM 153 begins at a Y intersection with NM 211 in the census-designated place of Cliff. (Northbound NM 211 heads west-southwest to end at U.S. Route 180 [US 180] in Cliff. Southbound NM 211 heads east to connect with the southern end of New Mexico State Road 153, then south to end at US 180.) From its southern terminus NM 293 proceeds northeasterly (leaving Cliff) for nearly until it reaches its northern terminus at the end of state maintenance and the asphalt pavement. (Box Canyon Road continues north as a gravel road for roughly before fording the Gila River and ending shortly thereafter.)
NM 293 runs northwest of and roughly parallel to the Gila River. (New Mexico State Road 153 [Turkey Creek Road] follows a similar route northeasterly from NM 211 in Gila for nearly and roughly parallel to the Gila River, but on the southeastern side of the river.)
