2022 Map of Avant

About this map

The town of Avant serves as the focal point for this landscape in southeastern Osage County, where the terrain is deeply dissected by the winding course of Bird Creek. To the north, the Avant Water Supply Lake and Candy Cr drain toward the settlement, while the southern reaches are defined by the multiple branches of Quapaw Cr, including the E Prong Quapaw Cr and W Prong Quapaw Cr. This area maintains a predominantly rural character, evidenced by private airstrips like the Kourtis Family Farm Airport and the Candy Lake Estate Airport. For genealogists and local historians, the map accurately positions the Avant Cem near the town center and the Lombard Cem further south, providing essential landmarks for tracing family heritage. The southern edge of the sheet briefly captures the northern residential streets of Skiatook, marking the transition toward the larger regional population centers.
