1969 Map of Glass Mountains

About this map

The Glass Mountains dominate the northwestern quadrant of this Major County landscape, where the escarpment gives way to a network of prairie drainages including Cheyenne Creek and Cottonwood Creek. This late 1960s environment shows a distinct pattern of energy exploration and rural organization, with numerous Oil Wells, Gas Wells, and scattered Drill Holes distributed across the township grids. Several small rural burial grounds, such as Cheyenne Valley Cem and Roscoe Cem, are positioned near the established boundaries of Cleo, Crowell, and Fairview. The infrastructure is typical of the Oklahoma plains during this era, featuring a high density of section-line roads connecting remote resources to local hubs, while natural features like Skunk Creek and Gypsum Creek dictate the remaining uncultivated terrain.
