About this map

The Salt Fork Arkansas River carves a winding path across the northern border of Jefferson township in this late-1960s survey of the Oklahoma-Kansas state line. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Yellowstone Creek, Hackberry Creek, and Greenleaf Creek, which create a complex network of ravines and draws across the high plains. Sparse settlement is concentrated around the community of Winchester, which sits near a Gaging Station on the riverbank. This map captures the rural social infrastructure of Woods County during a period of transition, preserving the locations of local landmarks such as Cedar Grove Ch and the Greenleaf Sch. The topography reveals the intense erosion patterns characteristic of the region, where seasonal waterways like Boggy Creek have shaped the red-soil terrain of northern Oklahoma.
