The towns of Billings and Salt Fork are in northern Oklahoma, and would almost certainly have been part of the 1893 Cherokee Outlet land run.

You cannot trust that paved roads will remain paved. Oklahoma (like other states in the Great Plains) is allowing some paved roads to revert back to dirt and gravel.

Regardless of what the law of right-of-way might say; your best bet is to move well to the side and stop.

The Red River (note that there may be several rivers with this same name in Oklahoma and elsewhere).

Excellent pics. They convey the impression of a beautiful, but lonely, landscape.
