About this map

The Cimarron River winds through this landscape in Alfalfa County, defining the local geography as it flows past Lone Peak. This 2009 survey highlights the region's industrial and agricultural character, dominated by the expansive Oakdale Gas and Oil Field and the Southwest Oakdale Gas Field. These energy resources are situated alongside a strict grid of section roads like N2500 Rd and E0380 Rd, which partition the plains for ranching and farming operations.

Local landmarks provide essential points of reference for genealogists and researchers, including the Pleasant Ridge Cemetery located in the northern portion of the quadrangle. Water management is centered around Gard Lake and the Gard Lake Dam, which capture runoff from Cheyenne Creek. The map documents a period where traditional rural infrastructure, such as the cemetery and small water bodies, coexists with the intensifying energy extraction footprint of the Oklahoma interior.
