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
