About this map

Chimney Creek Oil and Gas Field dominates the central landscape of this Woodward County survey, reflecting the intensive energy development of northwest Oklahoma during the late 1960s. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including Doe Creek, Chimney Creek, and Sand Creek, which carve through the high plains. A notable landmark, Chimney Rock, stands near the upper reaches of the drainage that shares its name. For genealogists and local historians, Highland Cem provides a specific point of reference for earlier settlement patterns in Union township. The distribution of numerous Gas Wells throughout the territory illustrates the industrial overlay on the rural grazing and farming sections of Liberty and Garvey.
