We took Road A west of highway 56 for 7.9 mile west of Elkhart, Kansas to the marker which is in the road. There used to be a windmill weather vane that sat near this location but it was destroyed between 2011-2019. All that is left of the windmill/weathervane is the base and concrete slab that it sat on. It was blustery cold outside the day we visited here. We made our way to the Cimarron Read More …
