About this map

Alfalfa stands at the center of this rural landscape where Caddo and Washita counties meet. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Washita River in the south and the sprawling waters of the Fort Cobb Reservoir and Swan Lake to the east. This area serves as a significant intersection of local history, evidenced by several small family or community burial grounds including Alfalfa Cem, Radford Cem, and Botone Cem.

A network of section-line roads like e1240 RD and n2460 RD crisscrosses the plains, connecting the remote farmsteads to the Carnegie Municipal Airport and the neighboring prairie drainages of Cobb Creek and Running Cr. The map details a sophisticated water management system of reservoirs and creeks, such as 015004 Reservoir and Camp Cr, which have long supported the agricultural lifeblood of the Oklahoma plains.
