About this map

Butler anchors the southern edge of this Custer County landscape, shown here through the lens of a mid-1970s orthophotograph. The aerial imagery reveals a highly organized pattern of agricultural land use, with square sections of cultivated fields and pasture defining the Oklahoma prairie. Cutting through these geometric plots is the meandering course of West Barnitz Creek, which flows southeast across the terrain. The contrast between the rigid sectional surveying and the fluid drainage of the creek provides a clear view of how water resources and land ownership intersected in the plains. This specific perspective highlights the density of farmstead sites and the intricate network of section-line roads that connected this rural community during the late twentieth century.
