Beaver County…
Beaver County is located in the panhandle of Oklahoma, which was also known as No Mans Land. If you travel on the highway, in No Mans Land the easterly county (Beaver) is one of three counties you pass through in the panhandle (a.k.a. No Mans Land). The town of Beaver is a small agricultural community with it’s share of oil & gas production and is also famous for it’s World’s Champion Cowchip Throwing Contest. It is also the county seat of Beaver County.

 If you head along highway 270 in the southeastern part of Beaver County, you will come to our next stop… Slapout (Nye). (Click on the photo to view a larger view of the road sign on the westside of Slapout. photo was taken January 3, 2001.) If you have any other ghostowns to add to the panhandle of Oklahoma or Beaver County, please  Email: paristimes@earthlink.net (Linda) and send us some pictures of past and present. Thanks!
