About this map

The Arkansas River defines the southern industrial and residential corridor of this region, where the urban expansion of West Tulsa meets the established community of Sands Springs Lake. This landscape is characterized by a mix of high-elevation points like Holmes Peak and Reservoir Hill and the creek valleys of Turkey Cr and Euchee Cr. The presence of the Tullahassee Creek Indian Cem, alongside Woodland Cem and Hellard Cem, points to the long-standing cultural and genealogical history of this portion of Tulsa County.

Transportation networks are densely mapped, showing the transition from city streets to more rural routes in the north, including uniquely named thoroughfares such as Tornado Blvd. Small named settlements like Kengle, Gray, and Price dot the riverside, illustrating the historical development of river-adjacent communities and the industrial infrastructure that follows the water's path through the valley.
