About Criner Hills
The Criner Hills are a small, rugged mountain range located in southern Oklahoma, near the Texas border. This range is characterized by steep, rocky terrain, with numerous small peaks and ridges. The landscape features a mix of oak-hickory forests, cedar-covered slopes, and exposed rock outcroppings. The Criner Hills were formed by tectonic activity and erosion over millions of years, resulting in a diverse and scenic natural environment.
