About this map

The Water Tank Otoe-Missouria Indian Agency stands as a focal point for the tribal lands along the border of Noble and Pawnee Counties in north-central Oklahoma. This landscape is defined by the winding course of the Arkansas River in the northeast, where Beaver Island and the elevation of Big Hill overlook the floodplain. The interior terrain is dissected by numerous waterways including Rock Creek, Coon Creek, and the long reach of Greasy Creek. Industrial footprints are evident through a dedicated Oil Field and scattered Oil Wells, while the southern portion of the quadrangle is bisected by the modern path of the Cimarron Turnpike. Local history is anchored by sites like the Otoe-Missouria Cem and Cleghorn Cem, alongside the small settlements of Milo and Missouri.
