The high plains of the Texas Panhandle meet the urban edge of Dalhart in this survey of the borderlands between Dallam and Hartley counties. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the city's residential grid—anchored by E 16th St and Sagebrush Rd—to a vast network of section roads and rural homesteads. To the south and west, the terrain drops toward the waters of Rita Blanca Lake, fed by the winding course of Rita Blanca Cr. This area represents the essential character of the High Plains, where the infrastructure of agriculture and aviation, such as Miller Airfield, sits alongside significant natural drainage systems. The survey details the convergence of state and local routes, including FM 281 and State Hwy Spur 24, which connect the outlying ranch lands to the heart of the community.
