1972 Map of Keefeton SE

About this map

Webbers Falls Reservoir dominates the northeastern corner of this 1972 orthophotomosaic, marking the significant impact of mid-century water management on the Muskogee County landscape. The aerial photography reveals the intricate interface between the reservoir's fingers and the surrounding terrain, providing a stark visual record of the shoreline as it existed in the early 1970s. Further inland, the settlement of Keefeton sits along a primary corridor, surrounded by a patchwork of agricultural fields and wooded sections. To the south, the topography shifts noticeably toward the Rattlesnake Mountains, where the darker textures of dense vegetation and elevation changes are captured in detail. This photographic survey is particularly valuable for understanding local land use and property boundaries before later decades of development modified the rural character of the area.
