2019 Map of Bivins Lake

About this map

Palo Duro Creek carves a deep path across this High Plains landscape, creating a dramatic break in the topography that defines the local geography south of Amarillo. The waterway flows through Bivins Lake, a central feature that serves as a focal point for the surrounding canyon and ranch lands. The map illustrates a transitional environment where traditional ranching landmarks like Tom Gerald Ranch Lake and the drainage of Negro Arroyo coexist with modern residential and recreational developments. These newer patterns are evident in the structured road networks of Laguna Vista Rd and W Country Club Rd. Aviation history in this corner of Randall County is represented by the Flying K Airport, while the intricate contour lines reveal the complex erosion patterns that lead into the larger canyon systems of the Texas Panhandle.
