About this map

Extensive strip mining operations dominate the landscape of Barton County and the Kansas border at the mid-century, carving deep pits across the terrain between Ardath and Liberal. The area's heavy industrial character is defined by a dense network of rail lines, including the St Louis - San Francisco, Kansas City Southern, and Missouri Pacific railroads, which served the numerous Strip Mines that surround the local settlements.
