2019 Map of Clayton

About this map

Clayton serves as the focal point of this Pushmataha County landscape, situated at the base of the prominent Kiamichi Mountains. The town's grid of streets, including W Choctaw St and Cherokee St, lies just west of the Kiamichi River and Jackfork Creek confluence. Further south, the landscape is defined by the recreation and water management at Clayton Lake, which is surrounded by a dense network of forestry and access routes. The presence of the Clayton Old Town Cemetery provides a tangible link to the early residents of this river valley. The map documents a terrain transitioning from the flat river valley into the steep, rising ridges of the Kiamichi Mountains, where primitive routes like Hurd Creek Trl and Clayton Trl penetrate the higher elevations, illustrating the area's timber and recreational character.
