About this map

The Washita River winds through the southwestern corner of this Roger Mills County landscape, a region defined by its dissected plains and drainage networks. The settlement of Crawford serves as a local focal point, surrounded by a rural infrastructure of section-line roads and dispersed landmarks. Cultural features essential to local history are documented here, including the United Pentecostal Ch and Sunrise Cem at the southern boundary.

Hydrological details are prominent, with Spring Creek Lake and several named tributaries like Dugout Creek and Dead Indian Creek carving through the terrain. The presence of a localized Oil Well suggests the early industrial footprint of the mid-1960s, while topographic markers like Twin Hills provide distinctive reference points for the area's natural relief. The map effectively captures the transition of the Oklahoma panhandle region's eastern edge during a period of established ranching and nascent resource extraction.
