About this map

The Black Kettle National Grassland dominates the southern landscape of this Roger Mills County region, preserving the open character of the Oklahoma prairie. The winding Canadian River cuts through the northern section, serving as a natural boundary between Ellis and Roger Mills counties. The settlement of Roll sits at a crossroads in the central-west portion of the map, while the northern uplands are marked by the distinct prominence of Ant Hill.

Genealogists will find significant local history preserved at Silent Home Cem and Pie Flat Cem, which reflect the early agrarian communities of Pie Flat and the surrounding townships. The area's hydrology is defined by numerous drainage systems like Wild Horse Cr, Dead Warrior Cr, and Bois d'Arc Cr, alongside several man-made water bodies such as 129008 Reservoir. This survey illustrates the modern persistence of rural section-line roads and sparse ranching settlements across the western high plains.
