Rainy Mountain

Rainy Mountain is a rounded hill standing northwest apart from the main Wichita Mountains in Kiowa County, Oklahoma. It was a prominent landmark for the Plains Indians on the southern plains.

Rainy Mountain Creek, flowing northeastward from Rainy Mountain, was a favored winter camp for the Plains Indians, especially the Kiowas, because the grass was green even in winter.
