2020 Map of Remuda Basin

About this map

Remuda Basin defines the central depression of this Chihuahuan Desert landscape in Eddy County, where the terrain is marked by ephemeral lakes and a network of specialized access roads. The presence of Potash Mines Rd in the northwest corner highlights the region's industrial connection to mineral extraction, a key driver of the local economy. Hydrological features like Lindsey Lake and the expansive Salt Lake dominate the northern sections, while prominent geological formations such as Forty-Niner Ridge and Livingston Ridge provide significant topographic relief to the east. Several ranching and utility corridors, including Mobley Ranch Rd and Rawhide Rd, crisscross the area, reflecting the contemporary land use patterns of southeastern New Mexico at the start of the 2020s.
