2016 Map of Taupa

About this map

Blue Beaver Creek and its many unnamed tributaries carve a dense dendritic drainage pattern across this Comanche County landscape, situated west of Lawton. The western edge of the city's expansion is visible here, including the Taupa settlement and the suburban developments of Quail Springs Drive. Amidst the modern road grid of Cache Road and West Gore Boulevard, several sites of genealogical importance remain, including Deyo Cemetery, Pecan Cemetery, and the Sunset Memorial Garden Cemetery. The terrain is punctuated by numerous artificial water bodies, such as Lake Unity and the numbered reservoirs like 031024 Reservoir, reflecting the water management required for this part of Oklahoma. In the northwest corner, the community of Cache sits along Crater Creek, providing a look at the rural-to-suburban transition as it existed in 2016.
