About this map

The town of Hinton serves as a hub for this rural Caddo County landscape, which is marked by deep topographic relief and water management infrastructure. Numerous reservoirs and catchment sites, such as Fay Abbott Reservoir and Zobisch Lake, dot the region, supporting the agriculture-based economy. To the east, the small community of Niles sits along the Caddo and Canadian County border. The map documents several significant family and community burial grounds, including Hinton Cem, Sacred Heart Cem, and Saint Johns Cem, which are valuable for genealogical research.

Sharp vertical terrain defines the area, most notably at Devils Canyon and Fisher Canyon, where the drainage patterns of Kickapoo Cr and Buggy Cr have carved distinct features into the plains. This 2016 survey illustrates the modern grid of county roads and the continued importance of water conservation in Oklahoma, reflected in specifically named flood control structures like Sugar Creek Site 41 Reservoir and Sugar Cr Site 210 Reservoir.
