About this map

The Cimarron River meanders through this portion of Kingfisher County, defining a landscape dominated by energy extraction and agriculture in the early 1980s. The region is marked by extensive industrial footprints, most notably the Lacey Oil and Gas Field and the Coronado Oil and Gas Field, which span large sections of the quadrangle north and south of the river. Small-scale aviation infrastructure, including the Bollenbach Landing Strip and the Huff Landing Strip, suggests the importance of private air travel in this rural corridor.

Local history is anchored by the small settlement of Lacey, with the Lacey Cem and Wilhite Cem providing vital points of reference for genealogical research. Along the riverbanks, extractive industries like the Sandpit and various Gravel Pits indicate the local utilization of riverbed resources. The map also traces Preacher Creek as it feeds into the main river channel, illustrating the drainage patterns of this central Oklahoma prairie.
