About this map

Brushy Creek Cem sits in the southern portion of this landscape, serving as a quiet focal point for local family history amidst a sprawling network of county roads. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of W Bitter Cr and its various tributaries, which have been managed into a series of water control structures including Bitter Cr Site 4 Reservoir and Bitter Cr Site 6 Reservoir. This management of the Bitter Creek watershed is a hallmark of the region's agricultural infrastructure, designed to stabilize the environment for the surrounding rural homesteads.

The settlement of Sooner appears in the northwest, situated along the thoroughfares that connect this part of Grady County. Aviation history is represented by the Thompson Private Airport in the northeast corner, reflecting the importance of private flight in the wide-open spaces of central Oklahoma. The map also traces the paths of Brushy Cr and N Fork Walnut Cr, illustrating how the natural hydrology continues to shape the orientation of property lines and rural transit routes.
