About this map

The town of Kinta serves as the northern anchor for this landscape where the undulating plains meet the sharp relief of the Sans Bois Mountains. This area of Haskell and Latimer counties is defined by a dense network of high ridges and deeply cut ravines, including the distinctively named Smokestack Hollow, Grassy Lake Hollow, and Twentynine Hollow. Local history is rooted along the grid of the town center, where Broadway and Main St intersect, and at the Shady Grove Cem situated to the southwest.

Water plays a central role in the topography, from the small Kinta Lake to the meandering Sans Bois Creek and its many tributaries like Beaver Cr and Mountain Fork. Elevation reaches its peak at Blue Mtn, providing a dramatic backdrop to the creek valleys below. The transition from the rural roads near Hulsey Mtn to the more isolated terrain around Bee Bluff and White Rocks illustrates the varied character of this corner of Oklahoma.
