About this map

Minco serves as the central hub for this Grady County landscape, where the street grid is flanked by the winding course of the Canadian River to the northeast and Buggy Creek to the south. The rural character of the area is defined by a network of sectional roads and family-named landmarks like Red Hill. To the north of the town center, Evergreen Cemetery stands as a significant point for local genealogy, while the presence of Chisholm Trail Rd reflects the deep historical cattle driving roots of the region.

The hydrology of the quadrangle is intricate, featuring numerous smaller drainages such as Beaver Creek, Salt Creek, and West Fork Salt Creek. Modern water management is evident in the southern portion of the sheet with the Oknoname 051026 Reservoir and its associated Oknoname 051026 Dam. This survey documents a transition from the town's dense residential core to the outlying agricultural reaches, where long-standing routes like Leonard B Scott Rd and Malcolm Rd connect scattered homesteads.
