It is located a few miles from the small village of Arch,NM and right next to the Texas border.

It is a dried up Salt Lake that I use to go exploring around that most people dont even know exist. When you walk into it it kinda reminds you of what White Sands looks like,its a grayish-white and goes on for miles and the ground is actually clay.

There are a lot of salt beds in New Mexico. Millions of years ago much New Mexico was an ocean twice and I believe a tropical forest.
