About this map

The ridge-and-valley topography of Southeast Oklahoma and Western Arkansas defines this mid-century survey, where the Kiamichi Mountain and Winding Stair Mountain ranges dominate the landscape. In the coal-rich region near McAlester, a dense network of mining towns including Alderson, Bache, Dow, and Haileyville follows the path of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific RR. This rail corridor, alongside the St Louis-San Francisco Ry, facilitated the industrial transport of timber and minerals out of the Ouachita National Forest.
