Bunker Hill, Texas

"Bunker Hill Texas in the Texas Panhandle lies 20 miles due west of Dalhart. The only thing remaining is the old one room school house which sits off of a paved road between highways 102 and 1727. There are still a lot of active farms around this area but all school children now make the bus ride to Dalhart.

Beware of large rattlesnakes. On a photography trip to the school last year I was greeted by a 5 1/2 foot prarie rattler." - Randy Johnson, April 04, 2005
