Salt Flat Patterns



Patterns on the salt flats of west Texas. These are the Salt Basin Flats west of the Guadalupe Mountains. The dry basin extends for miles north and south. The are visible from the air (see older posts) and are a sight from above, next to and out in the middle of.

Here at the edge of the salt, dirt and gravel have washed into the flat pan bottom of the basin. A few patterns drift out into the salt and then flat white salt is all one sees.
