About this map

The Cimarron River dominates this portion of Woodward County, branching through the landscape alongside numerous tributaries like Buffalo Creek and Elm Creek. In this 2010 survey, the rural character of northwest Oklahoma is defined by a significant water management network, featuring a series of numbered reservoirs and dams such as Selman 9 Dam and Oknoname 05918 Dam. These structures suggest a focused effort to manage the local watershed for ranching or agricultural use in a semi-arid region.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by specific landmarks such as Spring Valley Cemetery in the west and Nixon Cemetery in the southeast. Natural features like Salt Springs and Sleeping Bear Creek indicate a landscape rich with geographic naming traditions. The road network, consisting of identifiers like E0150 Rd and N2100 Rd, outlines a sparse grid of travel and transport between these isolated water sources and rural sites.
