2016 Map of Fourmile Hill

About this map

Guthrie serves as a focal point in this portion of King County, where the high plains meet the intricate drainage systems of the Wichita River basin. The landscape is defined by the branching paths of the S Wichita River and the Middle Fork Wichita River, which carve through the terrain alongside seasonal tributaries like Willow Cr. A prominent landmark, Fourmile Hill, rises above the surrounding ranch land, providing a distinct topographical marker in an area dominated by large-scale cattle operations. The presence of the 6666 Ranch Airport highlights the importance of private aviation and infrastructure in supporting the legendary 6666 Ranch. This 2016 survey documents the enduring ranching character of North Texas, where county roads like Co Rd 117 provide the primary links across the vast, open range.
