1986 Map of Beaver

About this map

The Cimarron River and the Beaver River define the wide landscape of the Oklahoma Panhandle in this mid-1980s survey. Extensive Oil and Gas Field operations and the Oil Field at Gray indicate the region's industrial foundation, while the Sand Hills north of the river suggest the persistent natural character of the high plains. Small agricultural and ranching centers like Turpin, Forgan, and the county seat at Beaver are connected by a network of roads that occasionally parallel an Old RR Grade, marking the shift in transportation patterns over the decades.
