About this map

Remuda Basin defines the central depression of this Chihuahuan Desert landscape in Eddy County. The terrain is characterized by alkaline water bodies and low-relief ridges, including the prominent Forty Niner Ridge and Livingston Ridge that rise above the basin floor. This 2013 survey shows a sparse, arid environment where water features like Salt Lake and Lindsey Lake are critical landmarks.

Transport and access are primarily managed through a network of rural routes such as Nm-128 and specialized ranching paths. The map reveals the infrastructure of the Permian Basin, where Rawhide Rd and Mobley Ranch Rd provide entry to remote grazing lands and resource areas. The presence of Tamarisk Flat highlights the specific flora that thrives in the saline, low-lying drainage areas of this Southeastern New Mexico territory.
