About this map

The Old Santa Fe Trail (Approximate Location) cuts across the southeast corner of this southwestern Kansas landscape, marking a historic corridor of western expansion. Set within the broader Richfield terrain of Morton County, the area is defined by the winding course of the Cimarron River and its North Fork. By the early 1970s, the rural character of the region was increasingly shaped by energy extraction, evidenced by the numerous Gas Wells peppered across the sections. Local history is anchored by the Richfield Cem in the southwest, providing a vital point of reference for genealogists and researchers of this high plains community. The map illustrates a transitional period where ancestral wagon routes and modern natural resource development overlap on the same arid ground.
