1969 Map of Cherokee South

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The town of Cherokee anchors this survey at the intersection of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and major highways. The landscape transitions from the developed town grid, featuring a Hospital, Radio Tower, and the Cherokee Cem, into the vast saline flats of the Salt Plains National Wildlife Refuge to the east. The drainage pattern is defined by the winding paths of Clay Creek, West Clay Creek, and East Clay Creek, which cut through the townships of Lincoln and Clay. This 1969 perspective shows a rural Oklahoma economy balanced between transportation infrastructure, small-town utilities like the Sewage Disposal Ponds, and natural preservation. A Roadside Park along Highway 64 offers a small recreational point in a landscape otherwise dominated by section lines and meandering creek beds.
