About this map

Great Salt Plains Reservoir dominates the southern landscape of this Alfalfa County region, where the Salt Fork Arkansas River feeds into the expansive basin. The settlement of Nescatunga sits along the shoreline, characterized by a local street network including Lakeview Dr and P14 Rd. Further north, the terrain transitions into a grid of rural section roads, where the historic Ware Cem serves as a localized landmark for genealogists tracing early families in the township.

The hydrology of the area is defined by several tributaries, notably Sandy Creek and Powell Cr, which flow toward the reservoir. Distinctive landforms such as Upper Dog Pond and Dog Pond are tucked away in the central sections, while the small settlement of Vining occupies a junction near the eastern boundary. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by both significant water management and the enduring rural settlement patterns of northern Oklahoma.
