About this map

The Canadian River cuts through the southwestern corner of this mid-1960s landscape, marking a distinct boundary between Ellis and Roger Mills Counties. This high-plains terrain is characterized by the wide, sandy channels of the river and the northern Sand Creek, where drainage patterns define the local geography. Human industry is sparse but present, noted by a lone Oil Well and a Drill Hole, signifying the early stages of resource exploration in this region. The water levels of Packsaddle Lake provide a rare stationary water feature in an otherwise arid expanse. The map illustrates a transitional period in Western Oklahoma, where traditional ranching land began to see the quiet introduction of petroleum infrastructure alongside permanent water catchments.
