Greenwood Lake sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape on the boundary of Eddy and Lea Counties. The terrain is defined by a network of local roads and unimproved trails that traverse the township and range lines, reflecting the modern management of this remote corner of New Mexico. Routes such as Westall Rd, Shugart Rd, and Lusk Rd provide access to the area, while the Dunes Access area in the southwest corner indicates the undulating sandy topography typical of the region. This 2020 survey documents a workspace of energy infrastructure and rural land management, where the straight lines of county roads like Co Rd 249 and Co Rd 126 contrast with the natural depression of the lake bed and the surrounding dunes.
