On May 15, 1914, 500 intrepid souls braved a dusty, winding, meandering rural road through northern Kansas. It was the inauguration of the Kansas portion of the Great White Way, which stretched from Chicago to Colorado Springs. We're going to do it again in 2014!

Important notice of detour!
For those coming from Concordia or points west, there is a detour between Blue Rapids and Frankfort. If it hasn't rained hard, you can get around the detour by going east from the junction of Highway 77 and 9 approximately 4.5 miles to 14th Rd. This is a good all-weather gravel road. Turn north (left) and drive 2 miles to Tumbleweed Rd, then go east to Frankfort. This will take you in by the city cemetery.
For those not wishing to drive on dirt roads, follow the detour signs to Marysville, take Highway 36 to Highway 99, and drop down to Frankfort.
The map will enlarge if clicked on.
