2018 Map of Leedey SW

About this map

Quartermaster Creek and its tributaries define the undulating topography of the Oklahoma plains along the border of Roger Mills and Custer counties. This 2018 survey documents a landscape dominated by a methodical grid of rural sections and roads such as E0840 Road and E0860 Road, which serve the agricultural land between the creek beds. Cultural and genealogical history is preserved in small, localized sites like Red Star Cemetery and Dewey Cemetery, which stand as quiet landmarks within the sprawling section lines. The drainage patterns of Cyclone Creek and Hay Creek illustrate the natural erosion of the high plains, providing a detailed look at the watercourses that have historically dictated the placement of homesteads and transportation routes in this part of Western Oklahoma.
