1966 Map of Avant NW

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The petroleum industry of Osage County is central to this mid-1960s survey, dominated by the sprawling infrastructure of the West Avant Oil Field and the Barnsdall Oil Field. Numerous Oil Wells are scattered across the wooded landscape, connected by a network of unimproved roads and pipelines. This extraction economy is set against a complex drainage system where the Midland Valley railroad follows the course of Bird Creek in the northeastern corner. To the south, Hominy Creek carves a winding path through the hills, joined by tributaries such as Wildhorse Creek and Bull Creek. The map documents a rugged, industrial terrain within the Big Heart and Black Dog regions, showing how resource development adapted to the narrow valleys and steep ridges of the Oklahoma interior.
