2019 Map of Bull Lake

About this map

Amherst sits at the northern edge of this West Texas landscape, positioned along a major transportation corridor that cuts diagonally through the Lamb County plains. The area is defined by its agricultural grid, where numerous county roads like Co RD 171 and Co RD 242 partition the terrain into expansive sections. A distinct natural depression characterizes the western portion of the map, centered on the wide basin of Bull Lake. This topographic feature is connected to Bull Draw and the smaller Bull Tank to the south, illustrating the drainage patterns of the Llano Estacado. Cultural landmarks include Fairlawn Cem near the town center and Sacred Heart Cem further south, adjacent to the Littlefield Taylor Brown Municipal Airport. These sites, along with the network of Farm to Market roads like FM 54 and FM 3216, reveal the intersection of rural life and aviation infrastructure in this corner of the Panhandle.
