2018 Map of Watchorn

About this map

The Arkansas River defines the landscape of this Pawnee County and Osage County border region, carving a wide path through the central portion of the map. This 2018 survey reveals a terrain defined by significant water management and rural settlement patterns, most notably the Turkey Island landform within the river channel. To the south, the settlement of Watchorn stands amidst a grid of country roads, while Big Bend occupies the northern reaches of the river's curve. The map records several vital tributaries including Red Rock Creek, Greasy Cr, and Rock Cr, which feed the river system. Large-scale water features like Sooner Lake and the Lower Black Bear Cr Site 7 Reservoir indicate the modern infrastructure that manages the region's hydraulic resources, while the county boundary line follows the river's course between Osage Co and Pawnee Co.
