1967 Map of Mc Alester SW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The U S Army Ammunition Depot dominates this landscape south of McAlester, illustrating the mid-century military industrial footprint in Pittsburg County. The depot's vast grid of numbered roads, such as Road Five and Road Nine, and its specialized infrastructure like the US Government Railroad and Rocket Lake, stand in contrast to the surrounding rural terrain. Traces of earlier industry and settlement appear at Coal Hill and near the Missouri-Kansas-Texas railroad line, while the Memorial Cem provides a point of interest for genealogists. The topography is defined by the Big Prairie Ridge and waterways like Muddy Boggy Creek and Hominy Creek, which feed into various reservoirs. This survey, photoinspected in the late 1970s, documents a significant military installation during its period of active utility.
