Industrial potash mining and ranching land define this 2010 landscape in Eddy County. The southern Chihuahuan Desert terrain is marked by the National Potash Company Eddy Mine and the nearby Getty Shaft, indicating the region's deep ties to mineral extraction. Settlement is sparse, represented primarily by the Benson Ranch in the north and the Fenton Ranch to the south, connected by a network of utility and service roads such as Burton Flats Rd and Magnum Rd.
