2010 Map of Clear Lake

About this map

Clear Lake sits within a sectioned landscape of Beaver County, Oklahoma, defined by the transition from high plains to the drainage networks of the eastern Panhandle. This 2010 survey illustrates a sparse settlement pattern where the primary geography is shaped by intermittent waterways like Duck Pond Creek and Mexico Creek. The map documents an extensive grid of section-line roads, many designated as hollows, such as Hollow N1530 and Hollow E0250, which facilitate movement through this cattle and agricultural country. To the south, Sand Creek weaves through the terrain, further highlighting the importance of seasonal water sources in this semi-arid region. The geometry of the road network, including routes like Hollow N1510, reflects the enduring legacy of the Public Land Survey System that carved this portion of Oklahoma into a precise checkerboard.
