About this map

The town of Eakly serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Caddo County, Oklahoma. The map reveals a strictly organized section-line road grid that defines the local transport patterns, punctuated by small private aviation sites including the Lasley Landing Strip and Wheeler Landing Strip. These local strips, along with Lasley Airport, suggest a reliance on aerial services for farming or private travel in this part of the Great Plains.

Waterways like Cobb Creek and Fivemile Creek cut through the geometric road network, providing natural drainage for the surrounding fields. For those researching family history, the map identifies the Eakly Cemetery on the edge of town and Poage Cemetery to the north, offering precise locations for these community landmarks. The presence of Crooked Creek and Lake Creek further underscores the riparian character of this otherwise structured prairie environment.
