About this map

The high plains of the Oklahoma Panhandle and the northern tip of Texas meet along this 1970s survey. The landscape is defined by the Beaver River, which winds through the northeast corner, and the distinctive geological features of the Cleveland terrain. Human activity in this remote region is marked by agricultural development and industrial extraction, evidenced by several instances of wells and a Caliche Pit situated near the state line.

Transportation and infrastructure are focused along the eastern boundary, where the A T & S F railroad cuts across the corner. The presence of a dedicated Landing Strip further south suggests the necessity of aerial access for local ranching or industry. This map provides a clear view of the jurisdictional junction between Cimarron Co, Oklahoma, and Dallam Co, Texas, during a period of established land division.
