About this map

The town of Bluejacket sits at the heart of this 2016 survey, where the grid of residential streets like NE 1st St and SE 3rd St meets the agricultural expanse of Craig County. This region is defined by its intricate drainage network, with Little Cabin Creek and its various tributaries, including Whiskey Br and Crow Creek, carving through the landscape. To the north, the southern edge of Welch is visible, connected to the surrounding countryside by a dense network of section-line roads such as Bluejacket Rd.

A notable landmark is the prominent Timber Hill, rising above the plains west of Bluejacket. Local history is anchored at the Bluejacket Cemetery located just east of the main settlement. The map reveals a landscape dominated by ranching and farming, evidenced by the numerous ponds and the systematic numbering of rural routes like EW0160 Rd and S 4460 Rd, which provide access to family holdings across the rolling terrain.
