About this map

Black Kettle National Grassland dominates this landscape in Roger Mills County, Oklahoma, where the prairie is defined by its watercourses and a growing energy infrastructure. The Washita River winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle, joined by tributaries such as Dead Indian Creek and Wild Horse Creek. This 1980s-era revision highlights the expansion of the natural gas industry, with numerous Gas Wells and a Pipeline network crisscrossing the terrain. Evidence of former transit routes remains visible in the Old Railroad Grade that follows the river valley. In the north, Dead Indian Lake serves as a recreational hub with a Campground, Picnic Area, and Boat Ramp documented by the survey. The terrain labels Streeter and Cheyenne mark the character of this Western Oklahoma landscape during a period of active land management and resource extraction.
