USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Protection serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape in south-central Kansas, situated at the crossroads of rail and road. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor cuts across the northern territory, marking the town's historic connection to regional commerce. This 1980 survey captures a community well-equipped with local infrastructure, including a Municipal Airport and a Golf Course on the town's southern edge. To the west, the Protection Cem stands near the banks of Bluff Creek.
