About this map

Whitehorse Cr and Eagle Chief Cr meander through this section of northwest Oklahoma, carving subtle drainage patterns across the plains of Woods Co. The landscape is defined by a rigid section-line road grid, including named thoroughfares like Grant Rd and Custer Rd, which facilitate transit between rural homesteads and agricultural plots. This network reflects the systematic land divisions of the Public Land Survey System, specifically within Township 26 North and Range 17 West.

Water management is evident in the northern reaches of the quadrangle, where the P M Miller Reservoir and McGill Lake provide essential catchment in an otherwise semi-arid environment. These small impoundments are central to the local geography, serving as landmarks for landowners and researchers tracing the 21st-century rural infrastructure of the region. The map captures the quiet, expansive nature of the Oklahoma panhandle's eastern edge before more intensive development.
