About this map

The Cimarron River winds through the southern portion of this landscape, its wide, braided channel carving through the terrain near the settlement of Wandel. This agricultural region along the border of Kingfisher and Logan counties is defined by a sophisticated water management system, evidenced by numerous flood control structures such as the Winter Creek Site 14 Reservoir and Winter Creek Site 22 Reservoir.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several historic burial grounds that serve as anchors for the rural community, including Oak Vale Cem in the north and Zion Community Cem centrally located near the county line. The landscape is also drained by the W Fork Sooner Cr and E Fork Sooner Cr, which flow through a grid of section roads like Crescent Dover Rd and College Ave that connect these remote homesteads and farmsteads.
