2012 Map of Belva

About this map

Belva and the surrounding agricultural lands of Woodward County are defined by a network of seasonal creeks and family-named reservoirs in this early 21st-century survey. The landscape is etched by the drainage of Cuddy Cr, West Cr, and Main Cr, which flow through a grid of rural section roads. For those researching local heritage, the W Creek Cem sits in the northern reaches, while the intersection at Bouse Junction marks a key point of transit across the southern plains. The prevalence of private water management is evident in the several reservoirs, such as the Debock Number 1 Reservoir and Johnson Number 1 Reservoir, suggesting a landscape focused on ranching and water conservation. White Law Ranch Rd and other local routes provide access to these remote parcels, preserving the spatial layout of Northwest Oklahoma's rural communities.
