About this map

Buttermilk sits at a geographic and historical crossroads in southern Kansas, where the prairie landscape is divided by the Old Indian Treaty Boundary. This 1980 survey captures the remote character of the region as it transitions across the Kansas Oklahoma state line and the border between Comanche and Woods Counties. The drainage of the Salt Fork Arkansas River and its tributaries, including West Creek and Sheele Creek, defines the local topography, which is largely given over to ranching and resource extraction. Evidence of local community life persists at Antioch Ch, while industrial activity is noted by scattered Gravel Pits and a Drill Hole. The presence of a prominent Water Tank and the persistent label of Villa across the central plains suggest the enduring markers of this sparsely populated borderland.
