About this map

The Nowata Co Craig Co line bisects this portion of northeastern Oklahoma, marking a transition between the gently undulating prairie and the prominent elevation of the Coker Hills in the southwest. This area is defined by a dense network of seasonal and permanent watercourses, including the westward-flowing Salt Cr and the complex drainage of Lightning Creek. The landscape is etched with the section-line road grid typical of the region, where rural life is anchored by family-named sites such as McMains Cem and Madden Cem. The presence of the Spur Ranch Reservoir in the northeast indicates the local importance of water management for livestock and agriculture in this corner of the state, where the open terrain meets more significant relief.
