About this map

Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge Headquarters serves as the administrative heart of a landscape defined by significant granite peaks and intricate water systems. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations like Elk Mtn, Bat Cave Mtn, and the prominent Quanah Mtn, while the drainage network includes W Cache Cr and Post Oak Cr. Human imprints on the land are evidenced by the settlement of Cache in the southeast and the strategic junctions at Indiahoma Wye and Cache Wye.

Natural landmarks such as Forty Foot Hole, The Narrows, and Wild Horse Canyon illustrate the geological complexity of the area. Recreation and conservation infrastructure are prominent, featuring the Quanah Parker Lake Visitor Center and various bodies of water including French Lake and Caddo Lake. This 2012 survey provides a clear view of the interface between the protected refuge lands and the rural road grid that borders it.
