1964 Map of Longton NW

About this map

Elk Falls sits at the southern edge of this mid-1960s survey, marking a point where the Elk River winds through the limestone-rich terrain of Elk County. The landscape is defined by its drainage systems, most notably Hitchen Creek and its many branches, including West Hitchen Creek and Little Hitchen Creek, which carve through the plains. A significant cultural marker is the Old Indian Treaty Boundary, which cuts across the northern half of the map, serving as a reminder of early land divisions in Kansas.
