About this map

Cimarron National Grassland dominates this portion of southwest Kansas, where the Cimarron River winds through a landscape defined by historic trail corridors and managed grazing lands. The map details several sections of the Santa Fe NHT-North Rte and the Santa Fe Nat Hist trail, marking the enduring significance of this overland route. Prominent geological features like Point of Rocks serve as landmarks above the river valley, complemented by the Middle Spring Nature area.

The city of Elkhart sits at the southern edge of the survey, characterized by a grid of streets including Baca Ave and Colorado St. Local history is anchored at the Elkhart Cem and the Elkhart-Morton County Airport. The surrounding prairie is meticulously divided into named grazing allotments such as West Headquarters Pasture, Pasture Number Thirtyfour, and Moore Pasture, reflecting the region's structured agricultural heritage.
