About this map

Bluestem Lake sits at the heart of this Osage County landscape, illustrating the modern water management and infrastructure that defines the region. The map details a sophisticated network of reservoirs, including Lake Pawhuska and several numbered sites such as 113113 Reservoir, which capture the runoff from various tributaries. These waters, including Higgins Cr and Maher Cr, eventually feed into the broader Bird Creek system.

Aviation and transportation infrastructure are prominent, anchored by the Pawhuska Municipal Airport. The surrounding terrain is characterized by the winding paths of Clear Creek and the distinct formation of Cedar Canyon to the southeast. The survey provides a clear view of the rural road network, with routes like Co RD 4070 and Co RD 4275 connecting the scattered homesteads and ranches within the Public Land Survey System townships of T26N and T25N.
