About this map

Crowder Lake serves as a central geographic focus on the border of Custer and Washita Counties, where the landscape is defined by a series of north-south drainages and man-made impoundments. The terrain is notably dissected by Cobb Creek and Spring Creek, creating a rugged topography of ridges and draws such as Possum Hollow and Dry Canyon. This agricultural and ranching landscape is organized by a strict section-line road grid, including Countyline Road and N 2400 Road, which connects various rural homesteads and landmarks.

Local history and genealogy are well-preserved through several established burial grounds, including Missouri Cem and Bethany Cem. The proliferation of reservoirs, such as Hunnicutt Reservoir and Crissman Reservoir, highlights the region's reliance on water management for land use. These water bodies, along with smaller unnamed reservoirs like 149023 Reservoir, suggest a landscape heavily modified for cattle or local irrigation in this corner of Western Oklahoma.
