2012 Map of Alden

About this map

Alden sits near the northern bank of the Arkansas River, serving as a central point for this agricultural and energy-producing landscape in Rice County. The town is structured around several local streets such as Main St and Pioneer St, where a Po indicates its continued role as a community hub. The surrounding geography is defined by the winding paths of Salt Creek and Peace Creek, with the latter passing near the Peace Valley Cem. Subsurface resources are prominently marked across the township, including the Alden Gas Storage Field, Fritzpatrick Gas Field, and the Rino Oil Field. Historically named intersections like Kilbourns Corner and McVays Corner ground the map in local lore, reflecting a time when rural crossroads served as vital landmarks for travelers and neighbors navigating the grid of country roads.
