About this map

Oil and gas infrastructure dominates the landscape of Osage County in the mid-1960s, evidenced by the expansive network of named fields and production facilities. Significant operations are concentrated in the Wildhorse Oil Field and the Madalene Oil Field, where numerous Oil Wells and a central Tank Farm mark the industrial character of the region. The southern edge of the survey captures the rising waters of the Keystone Res, showing areas subject to controlled inundation.

Settlement is sparse, primarily organized around rural agricultural holdings and small junctions. Morgans Corner serves as a localized hub in the north, while the Triple M Ranch and Arrowhead Ranch occupy the rugged terrain of the Black Dog district. The drainage system is anchored by Hominy Creek and its tributaries, including Wildhorse Creek and Turkey Creek, which carve through the wooded hillsides.
