1962 Map of Sobol

About this map

Bull Mountain and its Sobol Lookout Tower dominate the southwest corner of this Oklahoma landscape, overlooking a network of rural settlements and winding waterways. The map captures the meeting point of Pushmataha, McCurtain, and Choctaw counties during the early 1960s, a period when small communities like North Sobol, Sobol, and Ringold served as the primary hubs for local residents. The area is defined by a series of north-south running ridges, including Kiamichi and Fowler, which channel numerous tributaries such as North Turkey Creek and Caney Creek toward the Little River.
