2018 Map of Kaw City

About this map

Kaw Lake dominates the central landscape of this Oklahoma terrain, shaping the modern geography of the area north of Kaw City. The settlement of Washunga is positioned along the western banks of Washunga Bay, where the historic Washunga Cem remains a significant local landmark. This 2018 survey illustrates the complex relationship between the reservoir and the surrounding prairie, with numerous tributaries such as Little Beaver Creek and Rabbit Creek feeding into the basin. The eastern edge of the map follows the Kay Co Osage Co line, where the landscape transitions into more dissected upland terrain. Small communities and named locales like Cooper, Soldani, and Apperson are scattered across the rural road network, which includes routes like E Kildare Rd and Sarge Creek RD. Near the southwestern corner, Grandview Cem sits on the outskirts of the relocated Kaw City site, overlooking the waters that redefined this region.
