2010 Map of Dalton

About this map

Wellington sits at the southwestern edge of this landscape, where the local economy transitions into energy production and agriculture. The eastern portion of the city gives way to the Interchange Oil Field, while further north, the Rusk Oil Field borders the path of Dear Creek. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern typical of the Kansas plains, with Antelope Creek and Hargis Creek carving shallow paths through the grid-work of section-line roads. Small rural communities like Cicero and Dalton serve as landmarks in the outlying areas, while the Ninnescah River meanders across the northern reaches. This 2010 survey illustrates the modernization of the corridor, including the Wellington Service Area along the interstate and the established grounds of Sumner Memorial Gardens.
