2016 Map of Lariat

About this map

Blackwater Draw and Progress Draw define the subtle drainage patterns of this high-plains landscape, where the border between Parmer and Bailey counties cuts across a grid of rural roads. The small settlement of Lariat serves as a focal point along the diagonal corridor of the highway, marked here by Loop 403. For family historians, the map provides precise locations for two important local burial sites: the Oklahoma Lane Cem in the northeastern quadrant and the West Camp Cem further south. The irrigation and agricultural nature of the region is evident in the dense network of county roads, such as Co RD Aa and Co RD 1008, which partition the territory into the large, circular patterns of center-pivot agriculture characteristic of the Texas Panhandle.
