2009 Map of Ripley

About this map

The town of Ripley sits at the confluence of the Cimarron River and Stillwater Creek, serving as a focal point for this landscape in the late 2000s. The map reveals an extensive system of flood control and water management, evidenced by numerous numbered impoundments such as Stillwater Creek Site 1 Reservoir and Stillwater Creek Site 56 Reservoir, each accompanied by its respective dam. This infrastructure is interspersed with rural landmarks and family-history sites, including Mount Hope Cemetery, Clayton Cemetery, and Glenwood Cemetery. Transport through the river bottom is facilitated by the Allen Williamson Bridge, while the southeastern corner is dominated by the waters of Cushing Lake. To the east of the main creek, the terrain includes the interestingly named Ghost Hollow, providing a glimpse into the local nomenclature of this part of Oklahoma.
