1956 Map of Saddle Mountain

About this map

Saddle Mountain Indian Mission stands at the northern edge of this mid-century survey, a point of cultural history situated near the small settlement of Saddle Mountain. The landscape transitions from agricultural allotments in Marshall township into the protected hills and valleys of the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. Significant elevation changes are marked by granite peaks like Blue Mountain and Pearl Mountain, while water sources such as Medicine Creek and West Cache Creek carve through the rugged terrain.
