About this map

New Home and Petty stand as the primary focal points in this 1976 orthophotograph of the High Plains in Lynn County. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this orthophotoquad provides a direct visual record of the South Plains landscape, revealing the intricate patterns of center-pivot irrigation and the distinct playa lakes that dot the Llano Estacado. The stark, rectilinear grid of county roads defines the agricultural parcels, punctuated by the concentrated structures of New Home. The imagery captures the state of Texas cotton country during the mid-1970s, showing the precise footprints of farmsteads and rural infrastructure that shaped this portion of the Panhandle region before later decades of agricultural consolidation.
