About this map

Kaw City sits at the northern reaches of Kaw Lake, where the waters of the Arkansas River and Beaver Creek converge. This 2009 landscape reflects decades of hydrologic change, with the lake's fingers reaching into numerous drainages such as Sarge Creek, Stewart Creek, and Stub Creek. The map documents a blend of recreation and energy production, anchored by the Kaw Oil Field situated on the eastern banks of the river valley.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant landmarks for research, including the Washunga Cemetery overlooking the lake and the Grandview Cemetery situated west of the main town site. Further north, the terrain transitions into a network of section roads like E Canteen Rd and N Range Ln, dotted with smaller water management structures such as the Oknoname 071031 Dam and its associated Oknoname 071031 Reservoir.
