About this map

The Saluda River and its primary forks define the eastern and northern reaches of this landscape in Pickens and Greenville Counties. The unincorporated community of Dacusville serves as a central hub, surrounded by smaller residential pockets like Beverly Hills and Hendricks. The map reveals a dense network of local family and community history, evidenced by numerous burial grounds including Nine Forks Cem, Dacusville Cem, and Hunts Memorial Cem.

Industry and topography are closely linked here, with roads like Rackley Mill Rd hinting at the area's agricultural and milling past. The terrain is marked by significant elevations such as Hickory Nut Mtn and Cedar Rock Mtn, while the confluence of the North Saluda River and South Saluda River creates complex waterways at Earls Bridge and McElhenny Shoal. Numerous small impoundments like Philpot Pond and Rutledge Lake are scattered across the watershed, illustrating the transition from rural farms to residential land use.
