2010 Map of Farnsworth

About this map

Farnsworth serves as the primary settlement on this High Plains landscape, situated along a diagonal transit corridor that cuts through the grid of Ochiltree County. The terrain is defined by its characteristic playa lakes, including Truax Lake in the northwest and the larger Deer Lake to the southwest, which punctuate the agricultural sections. In the southeast, the drainage of Wolf Creek provides a break in the flat topography, winding past various local road junctions. This 2010 survey illustrates the persistence of small rural hubs like Lord in the northeast, maintaining their identity within a sprawling network of farm-to-market roads such as Fm 376 and Fm 3045. The map captures the organized efficiency of Texas Panhandle land division and the vital role of these seasonal water features and creek beds in an otherwise semiarid environment.
