About this map

Big Round Mountain and its surrounding peaks dominate the terrain in this 2010 survey of Adair County, Oklahoma. The landscape is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges, many bearing the names of local families and colorful regional descriptors. Notable among these are John Watie Hollow, Sally Bull Hollow, and Sonny Gile Hollow, which serve as markers for genealogists tracing ancestral land use in this part of the Ozark plateau.

Drainage systems like Little Lee Creek and Jenkins Creek carve through the elevations, with smaller tributaries such as Honey Hill Branch and Mission Branch feeding into the local watershed. The road network remains largely rural, following the natural contours of the land, with routes like Kirk Mtn Rd and Bell Rd providing access to the more isolated stretches between Vanderheiden Mountain and Workman Mountain.
