2016 Map of Lookout

About this map

The Oklahoma borderlands near the Cimarron River are defined by a high-plains landscape of rolling divides and deep drainage cuts. Lookout serves as the primary landmark in this rural expanse, situated along a network of section-line roads like Latimer Rd and Kiowa Rd that partition the landscape for ranching and agriculture. The map provides essential data for genealogists tracing family roots in Harper and Woods counties, specifically identifying the Lookout Cem and Coy Cem as key historical burial sites. Water management is evident through features like the Schroeder ja Reservoir, while natural waterways including Keno Cr and Anderson Cr carve through the terrain. This document reflects the enduring settlement patterns of the Oklahoma Panhandle fringe, where the infrastructure remains centered on wide-spaced homesteads and small community hubs.
