1968 Map of Potato Peaks

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Latham and the small settlements of Bordeaux and Kennady anchor this survey of the Le Flore County uplands during the late 1960s. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between industrial activity in the north and the high ridges of the south. Evidence of resource extraction is clear near the northern border, where a large Strip Mine and other mining operations follow the coal-bearing strata. To the south, the terrain rises steeply into Russell Mountain, Wolf Mountain, and the namesake Potato Peaks, cut by deep drainages like Wildhorse Hollow. For those researching family history, the map identifies local landmarks such as Long Prairie Cem and Dog Creek Cem. The drainage patterns of Brazil Creek and Red Oak Creek illustrate the natural corridors that influenced early settlement and road placement in this part of Oklahoma.
