1977 Map of Panama
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The town of Panama serves as a central hub in this 1977 aerial survey of Le Flore County, Oklahoma, positioned just north of the winding Brazil Creek. The landscape transitions from the residential patterns of the town center to the sharp, linear rise of Nubbin Ridge, which dominates the northwestern portion of the map. This orthophotoquad captures a distinct moment in time where the local agricultural economy meets the natural hydrological systems of the region. To the east and south, the Poteau River and James Fork create a complex network of oxbows and riparian curves, illustrating the dynamic nature of the river valley. The proximity of Shady Point to the south and the rural crossroads of Sunset Corner to the north highlights the distributed settlement pattern common in this part of the state during the late 1970s.
