2011 Map of Wilburton

About this map

Wilburton sits at a crossroads of the High Plains in Morton County, where the landscape is defined by vast grazing lands and the energy industry. This early 21st-century survey documents a region partitioned into numbered and named grazing units, including Artesian Pasture, Sandhills Pasture, and Coen Pasture. The economic life of the area is further evidenced by the Wilburton Oil and Gas Field and the Taloga Oil and Gas Field, highlighting the region's reliance on mineral extraction alongside traditional ranching. Local landmarks such as the Wilburton Cemetery and Happy Ditch provide points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing the footprint of this rural community. The organized grid of county roads, including County Road H and County Road G, facilitates movement across this sparse, functional landscape.
