1949 Map of Quanah Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge dominates this terrain, showcasing a high concentration of named summits and water bodies during the late 1940s. The landscape is defined by granite peaks like Elk Mountain and Mt Marcy, intersected by dramatic features such as The Narrows and Wild Horse Canyon. Cultural landmarks are centered around the heritage of the region, notably the Old Star House and the Post Oak Mission south of the refuge boundary. The map captures the intersection of conservation and military utility, as the eastern edge borders the Fort Sill Mil Res. Recreation and local administration are evident at Quanah Parker Lake, Craterville Park, and the Refuge Headquarters. From the Rock Crusher to the Landing Strip near Spanish Canyon, the map reveals the varied infrastructure supporting the refuge and the nearby community of Cache at a time when the St Louis rail line still influenced the local geography.
