About this map

The settlement of Slapout serves as the primary landmark in this section of the High Plains, situated at the junction of US-270 and US-412. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of drainage channels including Camp Cr, Spring Cr, and Clear Cr, which carve through the terrain. These natural features are interspersed with numerous geographic hollows, such as Hollow E0300 and Hollow E0340, which follow the organized grid of section roads like NS-162 and Ew-30.

A glimpse into the local history of this border region is found at Poplar Grove Cem, located near the southern boundary between Beaver and Ellis counties. The map illustrates the strict rectilinear survey system of the Oklahoma Panhandle, where modern infrastructure meets a landscape deeply marked by seasonal watercourses and prairie topography. This 2016 survey captures the area's transition between Harper, Ellis, and Beaver counties, reflecting the enduring rural character of the region.
