About this map

Smoky Hill River winds through the high plains of Western Kansas, marking a landscape where water and geology define the human geography. Near the confluence of the river and Ladder Creek, the small settlement of Elkader sits as a lonely outpost amidst the expansive terrain. This 1970s survey highlights the striking geological features of the region, specifically the Chalk Pyramids and the Monument Rocks Natural Landmark, which rise abruptly from the surrounding plains.
