2016 Map of Vega North

About this map

The town of Vega sits at the southern edge of this High Plains landscape, where the grid of the Panhandle gives way to the complex drainage systems of the Canadian River watershed. North of the community, the terrain is defined by the deep incisions of Middle Alamosa Cr and Ledger Cr, which carve through the caprock and create a stark contrast to the level agricultural fields and ranchlands found along Co RD F. These ephemeral watercourses, including Billys Cr and Bradley Cr, flow northward through a series of draws, eventually providing drainage for the region's cattle operations. On the flatter plateau to the east, Milkweed Lake serves as a prominent natural depression. The map documents the northern expansion of the town's street grid, including N Main St and Hamilton St, as they interface with the broader rural network of Oldham County.
