2016 Map of Kenton SE

About this map

Lake Carl Etling serves as a prominent focal point in this northwestern Oklahoma landscape, situated among the drainage networks of the High Plains. The terrain is defined by significant geological incisions such as Cottonwood Canyon and Water Canyon, which break the surrounding plateau. Water management and natural flow are central to the area's character, with Cold Springs Cr and Swede Cr winding through the topography. This 2016 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates the intersection of natural drainage and the systematic rural road grid, including N0120 Rd, which bisects the quadrangle. The map captures a contemporary look at the ranching and recreational geography of Cimarron County, where canyon systems dictate the movement of both water and local travel.
