About this map

The northern reaches of the Osage Hills along the Oklahoma-Kansas state line define this landscape, characterized by a complex drainage network that feeds into the Arkansas River basin. At the southern edge of the sheet, the small community of Foraker serves as a local anchor for the surrounding ranchlands. The terrain is marked by intermittent streams and numerous cattle ponds and reservoirs, including the 113127 Reservoir and 113137 Reservoir, which are vital for the livestock operations that dominate this prairie region.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Saint Johns Cem located northwest of town, a key landmark for tracing early families of the area. The map also details the Adams Ranch Airport Lake and Adams Lake, highlighting the infrastructure of large-scale ranching. A network of county roads, such as Co RD 4700 and Co RD 4551, provides the primary access through the undulating hills between Elm Creek and Antelope Cr.
