2013 Map of Nebo

About this map

The Washita River meanders through the western half of this landscape, carving a wide valley as it flows south toward the Oklahoma border. The small settlements of Nebo and Baum anchor the rural road network, which is defined by numerous family-named routes reflecting the area's agricultural and ranching heritage. Several small drainages, including Oil Cr and Denmark Cr, feed into the river system, creating a pocketed terrain of creek beds and low ridges. Local history and genealogy are evidenced by the presence of Young Cem and Hutchins Cem, located near the intersection of early transit paths. Significant local landmarks like the Goddard Ranch Airport and the sprawling Daube Ranch Rd suggest the ongoing importance of large-scale landholdings and private aviation in this part of southern Oklahoma.
