About this map

The Santa Fe Trail cuts through the high plains landscape of the Oklahoma Panhandle, following a distinct diagonal path across the southern half of this 1971 survey. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Cimarron River, which flows through the Garrett area. A complex system of seasonal drainages, including North Picket House Draw and South Picket House Draw, indicates the erosive power of water on this semi-arid plateau. This map also marks the political boundary where Baca County, Colorado, meets Cimarron County, Oklahoma. Subtle evidence of resource extraction appears via a Caliche Pit and an isolated Drill Hole, while the density of fenced lines and unimproved roads reflects the specialized ranching economy of this borderland region.
