2012 Map of Stinking Creek

About this map

Mountain View sits at the northwestern corner of this territory, where a precise grid of rural roads extends south and east toward the Washita River. This landscape is defined by its water management and memorial sites, including Anquoe Memorial Cem and Samone Cem in the north and Elmwood Cem further south. The drainage patterns of Rainy Mountain Cr, Stinking Cr, and Saddle Mountain Cr are interrupted by a series of modern catchments, such as the Rainy Mountain Cr Site 3 Reservoir and Saddle Mountain Site 11 Reservoir. These features reflect the 21st-century agricultural and environmental engineering of Kiowa County, preserving the names of the surrounding hills while securing the local water supply. For genealogists and local historians, the specific placement of these family and community cemeteries among the section-line roads provides a clear map of the region's cultural footprint.
