Flint Hills


 
 

The Flint Hills are a group of hills in eastern Kansas, extending from Marshall County in the north, to Cowley County in the south. The hills were created approximately 250 million years ago during the Permian Period. During this time much of the midwest, including Kansas, was covered with shallow seas. As a result, much of the Flint Hills are composed of limestone and chert.
