About this map

The town of Savanna serves as the central hub of this Pittsburg County landscape, situated at the intersection of a developed road grid and the diagonal corridor of Old Hwy 69. The surrounding terrain is defined by a series of prominent elevations, including Shoat Mountain, Piney Mountain, and Wade Mountain, which steer the drainage of numerous local waterways. The mapping reveals a concerted effort in water management along Peaceable Creek, evidenced by multiple structures such as Brushy Peaceable Creek Site 31 Dam and its counterparts, sites 32 and 33.

Transportation infrastructure dominates the eastern half of the quadrangle, where the Indian Nation Tpke cuts a wide swath across the countryside. Rural life is organized around a strictly numbered road system, such as E 1520 Rd and E 1490 Rd, connecting scattered homesteads to the primary transit lines. The presence of Brown Lake Dam on Bull Creek further illustrates the intersection of Oklahoma's natural topography with twentieth-century engineering.
