1949 Map of Cooperton
USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
The Rainy Mountain Indian School and its associated Reservation land dominate the northern plains of this Kiowa County landscape at the close of the 1940s. Centered on the small settlement of Cooperton, the map illustrates a transition from the agricultural lowlands surrounding Rainy Mountain Creek to the stony heights of the Wichita Mountains in the southeast. This southern portion is defined by the Wichita Wildlife Refuge, where peaks like Mt Pinchot and Baker Peak rise sharply above the Glen Mountains. Local history is preserved in the location of the Rainy Mountain Ch and the Union Dale Cem, while a Gold Mine (Abandoned) on the western edge of the mountains points to earlier prospecting efforts. The San Francisco railroad line clips the southwestern corner, providing a vital connection for this rural Oklahoma district.
