1991 Map of Meers

About this map

Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge dominates the southern landscape of this 1991 survey, where the rugged topography of the Wichita Mountains rises sharply. Local history and genealogy are centered around the settlement of Meers, featuring the Meers Cem and a nearby Historical Marker. To the southeast, the waters of Lake Lawtonka reach into the quadrangle at Robinson Landing, serving the community of Lawtonka Acres. Cultural and spiritual heritage is visible through the Mount Scott Kiowa Mission and the Mountain Scott Tribal Cem near the lake's edge. The map captures a transition from the protected wilderness and peaks like Mount Sheridan and Mount Wall to the ranching lands and creek drainages of Kimbell Ranch and Tahoe Creek to the north.
