2022 Map of Orion

About this map

Orion and the surrounding plains of northwestern Oklahoma are defined by the meandering course of the North Canadian River as it crosses the boundary between Major and Dewey Counties. The settlement of Orion sits just north of the county line, surrounded by a grid of rural section roads like E0530 Rd and N2380 Rd that serve the local agricultural community. Historical burial grounds, including Orion Cem and Hope Cem, provide primary points of interest for genealogical research in this region of the Sooner State. The landscape is characterized by the river's broad floodplain and the drainage of small tributaries such as B Griever Cr, which flow through the rolling terrain of various townships, including t20n r15w and t19n r15w.
