Stop 2

Kings Creek is one of two major streams on Konza Prairie. Trees lining a creek in a prairie are called a “gallery forest”. The entire area of trees and creek are called a “riparian area”. The dominant trees here are bur oak and chinquapin oak, elm, hackberry, walnut, and hickory. About 7% of Konza Prairie is forested.
