Woodson State Fishing Lake and Wildlife Area occupies the central landscape of this Woodson County quadrangle, where the waters of Sandy Cr are impounded near Fegan Rd. The area is defined by a significant history of resource extraction, clearly evidenced by the Big Sandy Oil Field, Silver City Oil Field, and Yates Center Oil Field distributed across the prairie. The settlement of Batesville sits in the northwest, while the southern terrain is marked by the unique geological formation of the Silver City Dome. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies both the Big Sandy Cem and Belmont Cem, providing precise locations for family research. A network of rural roads, many named for local flora and fauna such as Hawk Rd and Longhorn Rd, connects these remote industrial sites and community landmarks.
