About this map

Nelagoney sits at the southern edge of this Osage County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages and creek beds. The area is characterized by significant elevation changes, with Lookout Point providing a prominent vantage over the winding path of Sand Creek. Settlement is sparse, centered on the small communities of Kiheki and Okesa, which are connected by a grid of county roads such as Okesa Rd and the prominent Bartlesville Rd in the northeast.

Water features dominate the local geography, including Lookout Lake and Peters Lake, along with numerous named tributaries like Buffalo Cr, Chateau Cr, and Paula Cr. The map reveals a rural landscape where narrow valleys like Dry Hollow contrast with the broader uplands, illustrating the complex hydrology of the region as it was recorded in the mid-2010s. For those studying local land use, the transition from these watercourses to the upland ridges provides clear insight into the historical placement of local roads and homesteads.
