2018 Map of Avant

About this map

Avant sits at the northern edge of this Osage County landscape, where the waters of Bird Creek and Candy Cr converge. The topography is defined by the winding drainages of Quapaw Cr and its various forks, including the W Prong Quapaw Cr and E Prong Quapaw Cr. Local infrastructure is concentrated around the small town site, featuring the Candy Lake Estate Airport and the nearby Avant Water Supply Lake. To the south, the map reaches into the northern margins of Skiatook, providing a detailed view of the transitional terrain between these two communities during the early 21st century. Genealogists will find the locations of Avant Cem and Lombard Cem significant for tracing local family history in this portion of Oklahoma, while the inclusion of numerous numbered reservoirs like 113068 Reservoir illustrates the managed hydrology of the rural countryside.
