About this map

The town of Hinton serves as a primary hub in this Oklahoma landscape, situated where the high plains begin to break into the deep drainages of Fisher Canyon and Devils Canyon. The map reveals a highly managed watershed system characterized by numerous small impoundments such as Fay Abbott Reservoir, Zobisch Lake, and the Sugar Creek 210 Reservoir. These water features are essential to the agricultural life of the Caddo and Canadian County line, providing necessary storage in a region defined by seasonal creek flows like Sugar Creek and Buggy Creek.

For those tracing local heritage, the map documents several distinct burial sites including Hinton Cem, Sacred Heart Cem, Constien Cem, and Saint Johns Cem. The eastern portion of the survey includes the settlement of Niles and the nearby Niles Canyon Ranch Airport, illustrating how aviation and rural ranching have integrated into the modern landscape. The grid of section roads, from Co Rd 1060 to S Chisholm Rd, provides a clear framework for locating specific family land holdings and historical homestead sites.
