Kiamichi Mountains and their foothills create rugged terrain with steep ridges and narrow valleys throughout the county. Hugo Lake on the Kiamichi River provides a major water feature among the heavily forested landscape.

Timber production represents a major agricultural enterprise, with pine plantations and natural forests covering much of the mountainous terrain. Cattle operations utilize valley pastures and forest openings, while some poultry production occurs in suitable locations.
