About this map

The Gate settlement and its surrounding landscape in the Oklahoma Panhandle are defined by the winding course of the Beaver River, which cuts across the southern portion of this 2016 survey. The terrain is deeply etched by a complex system of drainage hollows, including Hollow E0100 and Hollow N1650, which channel seasonal runoff toward the river and major tributaries like Horse Cr and Hog Cr. North of the town center, Gate Lake provides a significant water feature in this otherwise arid environment.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by two primary burial grounds: Zelma Cem to the west and Cline Cem on the eastern edge near the Beaver Co and Harper Co line. The road network reflects a structured rural development, with named routes such as Branch Main, Branch 6th, and Branch Bundy serving the agricultural plots north of the river. This map documents the persistent settlement patterns and natural hydrology of the High Plains as they existed in the early 21st century.
