Quanah Parker Trail"From prehistoric days a favorite
Indian camp ground. The main camp of the Comanche Indians in December, 1860 when Cynthia Ann Parker was recaptured from them near medicine mound in Foard County. Famed for the purity of its water. Tradition tells of corn ground in the holes in the sand stones north of this site."
