1961 Map of Retrop

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The North Fork Red River meanders across this Western Oklahoma landscape, marking a boundary where the flat plains of the Dill and Poarch regions meet the rising Granite Mountains. By the early 1960s, the rural community of Retrop and its predecessor, Old Retrop, served as central points for a scattered network of farmstead life. Evidence of local industry is found in the West Sentinel Oil Field and the Moravia Oil and Gas Field, while the southern reaches show the early recreational development of Quartz Mountain State Park near the shores of Lake Altus. The area's social fabric is anchored by landmarks like the Port Sch, Zion Ch, and several rural burial grounds including Poarch Cem and Pleasant Valley Cem.
