2009 Map of Bellvue

About this map

Polecat Creek and its many tributaries, including Figure Eight Creek and Mosquito Creek, dominate this rural Oklahoma landscape. The terrain is characterized by a high concentration of water management features, most notably the numerous reservoirs and dams designated for flood control on the Little Deep Fork Creek drainage. Landmarks such as Hoot Owl Hollow provide unique local identifiers within a network of section-line roads like S 449th West Ave and W 181st St S. The map reveals a transition toward engineered water basins, seen in the series of Little Deep Fork Creek Site 35 and Site 22 reservoirs, which reshaped the natural flow of Catfish Creek and Little Catfish Creek. This 2009 survey reflects the modern rural infrastructure of Creek County, where agricultural land and small drainage basins are carefully partitioned by an extensive grid of numbered avenues and streets.
