2012 Map of Purdy

About this map

Purdy serves as the central settlement of this Garvin County landscape, where the rural road network intersects with historical local markers like the Purdy Cem. The terrain is significantly defined by a series of water management projects, including the Rush Creek Site 38 Reservoir and numerous numbered reservoirs along Wildhorse Creek. These sites, such as Wildhorse Creek Site 89 Reservoir, illustrate the modern hydraulic engineering of the region's drainage basins. Transport and utility in the area are represented by the Bearden Private Airstrip and the winding course of Rush Cr and Wildcat Cr. The map captures a transition in Oklahoma's rural infrastructure, where old routes like Old Hwy 7 meet a modern grid of county roads.
