2012 Map of Cookietown

About this map

Cookietown anchors this portion of Cotton County, Oklahoma, sitting at the junction of several section-line roads in a landscape defined by prairie agriculture and energy extraction. The area's industrial character is marked by the Soldier Creek Oil Field and the Essaquanahdale West Oil Field, which speak to the region's long-standing connection to the petroleum industry. Drainage for these plains is provided by the meandering W Cache Cr, along with Dry Red Cr and Deep Red Cr in the southwest. A modern transportation corridor is represented by the highway and the Walters Municipal Airport in the north. The map's rigid grid of local routes, including e1880 RD and n2530 RD, illustrates the systematic land division characteristic of the Great Plains, where every mile is precisely measured for access to homesteads and oil leases.
