2023 Map of Remuda Basin

About this map

Remuda Basin defines the central topography of this corner of Eddy County, characterized by a series of alkaline depressions and prominent ridges. To the west, Salt Lake and Lindsey Lake mark low points in the terrain, while Livingston Ridge and Forty-Niner Ridge provide significant elevation to the north and east. The landscape's industrial character is indicated by the presence of Potash Mines Rd, a primary arterial route supporting the region's mineral extraction. Other local routes, such as Rawhide Rd and Mobley Ranch Rd, weave through the basin, connecting isolated ranching and mining interests. The transition from the high ridges down to Tamarisk Flat illustrates the complex drainage and sediment patterns typical of this arid New Mexico environment.
