The Cimarron National Grassland dominates this corner of Morton County, where the high plains transition into the managed grazing units of the Cimarron River valley. This 2015 survey reveals a landscape structured by the heritage of range management, clearly delineating named units such as West Headquarters Pasture, Pasture Number Thirtyfour, and Point Pasture. The historic Point of Rocks stands as a prominent landmark near the river, long serving as a navigational beacon for travelers on the Santa Fe Trail. Just south of the grassland, the town of Elkhart serves as the regional hub, its residential grid including streets like Colorado St and Jayhawk Blvd. The map also captures essential local infrastructure like the Elkhart-Morton County Airport and the Elkhart Cem, documenting the modern footprint of this agricultural community alongside historic routes like the Companion Trail.
