The Smoky Hill River winds through the southern edge of this Kansas landscape, defined by a mix of agricultural tradition and energy extraction in the mid-1970s. Traceable along the river valley is the Butterfield Overland Trail, marking a historical corridor of westward expansion that contrasts with the modern industrial footprint of the Lundgren Oil Field. Numerous Oil Wells and Drill Holes are scattered across the townships of Lewis and Jerome, indicating the intensive subsurface exploration of the era.
