Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia | 0.04 sec. |
Cimarron RiverRiver, southwestern U.S. Rising in northeastern New Mexico, it flows 698 mi (1,123 km) to enter the Arkansas River near Tulsa, Okla. Traversing the northern Oklahoma Panhandle, southeastern Colorado, and southwestern Kansas, the riverbed in this area is often dry and is known as the Dry Cimarron. The Santa Fe Trail coursed along its valley for 100 mi (160 km), and travelers knew the Oklahoma Panhandle as the “Cimarron Cutoff.” How to thank TFD for its existence?
