1971 Map of Clayton
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
The Kiamichi River valley defines the landscape of southeastern Oklahoma in the early 1970s, where the community of Clayton serves as a local hub. The St Louis - San Francisco railroad runs parallel to the river, connecting the town to Tuskahoma to the northeast. This era shows a clear focus on conservation and recreation, evidenced by the expansive Pushmataha County State Game Refuge and the Clayton Lake State Recreation Area. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex as the Kiamichi Mountains rise, marked by seasonal drainages like Hard Creek and Peal Creek. Local landmarks such as the Landing Strip and Minnetonka Camp reflect the area's mix of rural utility and wilderness access, while the Alexander Trail and Base Line provide historical surveying context for the rugged interior.
