Mount Scott is the tallest accessible mountain. A paved road leads to the summit, offering views of the granite promontories to the west, the wind farm on the Slick Hills to the north, the lakes to the south and east, Fort Sill, and Lawton. Elevation 2,481 ft (756 m). The Wichita Mountains are rocky promontories, many capped by 500-million-year-old granite, rounded hills made of red and black igneous rocks, light-colored sedimentary rocks, and boulder conglomerates. The Wichita Mountains formed in four distinct geologic episodes after a failed continental rift and are located in southwestern Oklahoma.
The mountains are home to numerous working ranches and quarry operations, the state reformatory, recreational homes and campsites, and scenic parklands. Fort Sill, home of the U.S. Army Field Artillery School, occupies a large portion of the southeastern end of the mountains.
