1894 Map of Sitka

USGS Topo · Published 1902

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe R.R. cuts a precise line across this plains landscape, marking the vital transportation corridor that sustained the small settlement of Sitka. Surveyed in the early 1890s, the map reveals a region defined by its drainage systems, where the meandering Cimarron River flows through the southern reaches. Numerous seasonal and perennial waterways like Snake Creek, Day Creek, and Spring Creek carve into the terrain, illustrating the natural water sources that dictated early settlement patterns and ranching boundaries in this corner of Clark County and Comanche County. The inclusion of the Kansas Oklahoma Boundary Line at the southern edge emphasizes the map's location at a significant geopolitical border during the transition from the territorial era toward statehood.
