About this map

Cooperton stands at the northwestern corner of this Kiowa County landscape, where the grid of rural roads meets the base of several prominent peaks and ridges. The terrain transitions from the relatively flat expanses of Fullingim Flat and Boggy Flat to a series of distinctive granite rises including Buffalo Mtn, Grace Mtn, and the aptly named Dead Man Mtn. This intersection of plains and peaks creates a geography defined by scattered springs and intermittent creeks, such as Time-O-Day Spring and Sugar Creek Spring.

Local landmarks such as Springhill Cem provide a focal point for genealogical research, while the surrounding topography is dotted with curiously named heights like Panther Mtn and Baker Peak. The complex drainage system of Boggy Hollow Cr and Telephone Cr winds through the flats, reflecting a landscape where water sources and elevation have long dictated the placement of homesteads and transportation routes like Main St and Butler St in the village center.
