1998 Map of Boise City SW

About this map

Rita Blanca National Grassland dominates this landscape along the border of Oklahoma and Texas, documenting a transition in the High Plains during the late twentieth century. The terrain is defined by the drainage of the Beaver River and Agua Fria Creek, which carve through the shortgrass prairie. The map captures local history through small, grounded landmarks such as the Bertrand Cem and a Gravel Pit, providing essential points of reference for genealogists and local historians. Rural townships like Gresham and Cleveland are noted, alongside the community of Wheeless. This 1998 revision of earlier 1969 topography reflects the enduring agricultural and conservation character of Cimarron County, showing the section lines and roads that organized the panhandle's ranching economy.
