2016 Map of Cookson

About this map

Tenkiller Ferry Lake dominates the western half of this landscape, its sprawling waters and intricate shoreline defining the geography of eastern Oklahoma. Along its eastern banks, the community of Cookson serves as a central hub, accompanied nearby by the Cookson Cem. The terrain is characterized by a series of prominent elevations and ridges, including Buckhorn Mtn, Levi Mtn, and Ballew Ridge, which rise sharply from the lake's edge. Further south, the map captures the border between Cherokee Co and Sequoyah Co, reaching the settlement of Evening Shade. Aviation access is noted at both Tenkiller Lake Airpark and the Snake Creek Wilderness Airport, reflecting the area's development as a recreational and residential destination. The map also highlights several named water features such as Sixshooter Br and Pettit Bay, illustrating the complex drainage patterns feeding the reservoir.
