2018 Map of Keyes West

About this map

Keyes sits at the eastern edge of this high plains landscape in the Oklahoma Panhandle, where the town's street grid, including 2nd St and Ramsey Blvd, meets the open section lines of Cimarron County. The terrain is defined by dry lake beds and occasional water features like Willow Bar Lake, Slimp Lake, and Castor Lake, which provide rare relief in an otherwise strictly surveyed agricultural grid. Genealogy researchers will find the Willowbar Cem situated south of the main town site, a significant landmark for tracing local family history in this corner of the state. The map reveals the rigid organization of the land into townships and ranges, such as t4n r7e, reflecting the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the settlement patterns of the region.
