Rolling Cross Timbers hills and prairie extend between the Canadian and Washita River watersheds, creating diverse topography from river bottom lands to oak-covered ridges. The Washita River forms the southern boundary with its associated bottom lands.

Cotton and peanut production utilizes the sandy soils and favorable growing conditions, while cattle operations graze both improved pastures and native grass ranges. Wheat farming provides winter cover and spring cattle pasture before grain harvest.
