1968 Map of Bula

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The salt lakes of the High Plains dominate the northwest quadrant of this region, where the Muleshoe National Wildlife Refuge preserves a landscape of ephemeral basins including Upper Pauls Lake, Lower Pauls Lake, and Lower Goose Lake. This area of Bailey County illustrates the reliance on groundwater in the late 1960s, with dozens of individual Wells and Well sites peppered across the plains to support agricultural operations. The small settlement of Bula serves as the primary local hub, located along a straight east-west road punctuated by a Substa and a water tower marked as WT. In the southwest, the topography is defined by the winding course of Yellow House Draw, while a Roadside Park and a small Gravel Pit along the northern highway indicate the modest infrastructure of this rural Texas panhandle environment during the era.
