About this map

The small communities of Davis and Sulphur anchor the southern reaches of this Oklahoma landscape, situated just north of the Chickasaw National Recreation Area. The region is defined by a dense network of water management projects, including dozens of reservoirs such as Rock Creek Site 7 Reservoir and Chigley Sandy Creek Site 2 Reservoir. These structures underscore the agricultural and hydrological importance of the tributaries feeding into Kickapoo Sandy Cr and Chigley Sandy Cr.

Genealogists can locate the rural settlements of Iona and Chigley, along with historic burial grounds like Iona Cem and the Sandy Baptist Church Cem. Local aviation is represented by the Crazy Horse Municipal Airport, while modern transit is visible via the Chickasaw Turnpike. The terrain transitions from these engineered reservoirs into the protected parklands of the south, illustrating the balance between mid-century water infrastructure and public land preservation.
