1987 Map of Canute

About this map

Canute and the eastern edge of Elk City are the primary focal points of this 1980s Western Oklahoma study, situated within a landscape defined by the local energy economy. The extensive Gas Field dominates the terrain, marked by numerous Gas Wells and a Compressor Station that signal the region's industrial character. Transportation and utility networks are prominent, including the Farmrail line and multiple pipelines that cut across the section lines. The rural community structure is visible through traditional landmarks such as St Matthews Ch and several burial grounds, including Holy Family Cem, Edwardsville Cem, and Hebron Cem. Drainage patterns are established by Turkey Creek and Oak Creek, which meander through a grid of agricultural land and occasional Trailer Parks near the larger settlements.
