About this map

The Salt Fork Arkansas River carves a winding path across this landscape on the border of Kay and Noble Counties. This area is anchored by the community of Marland, which is situated along the BNSF Railway. Just to the southeast lies Old Bliss, a name reflecting the local history of settlement and rail relocation in north-central Oklahoma. The terrain is defined by natural landmarks such as Spindle Top Hill and the Badlands, with numerous smaller waterways like Birds Nest Cr and Deadman Cr draining the prairie.

Genealogists and local historians can trace the grid of section lines and rural roads, including Cowboy and Yearling, which frame the agricultural parcels. Notable sites such as the Cowboy Hill Cem provide specific points of interest for family researchers. The presence of engineered water management is evident through features like the Longbranch Site 2 Reservoir, reflecting the modern agricultural character of this plains region.
