2012 Map of Cherokee North

About this map

Cherokee serves as the focal point of this northern Alfalfa County landscape, where the confluence of several significant waterways dictates the local geography. The Salt Fork Arkansas River winds through the central portion of the map, joined by the Medicine Lodge River and smaller tributaries like Driftwood Cr and Cottonwood Cr. The grid of the township is clearly established by a series of numbered roads, including e0180 RD and n2615 RD, which connect the town to outlying landmarks. Genealogists and local historians will find the Stella Friends Acad Cem north of town, a site associated with the region's Quaker educational history. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is represented by the Cherokee Municipal Airport and the surrounding transport network, showing how the settlement has maintained its position as a regional hub even as the agricultural landscape around it remained largely open.
