About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices across this prairie landscape, marking a historical demarcation line between Clark and Ford counties. In the late 1970s, the region was defined by a network of drainage systems including West Kiowa Creek, Little Turkey Creek, and Sand Creek, which carve through the land south of Bucklin and Westland. The map reveals the quiet agricultural and industrial character of southwest Kansas, where scattered Gas Wells and extensive pipelines intersect with the townships of Liberty, Kiowa, and Lexington. In the southern reaches, the proximity to the Protection township and the Lone Tree Creek basin highlights a terrain transitioning toward the Oklahoma border, capturing a moment of rural stability before modern shifts in prairie land use.
