2017 Map of Dacusville

About this map

The community of Dacusville serves as the focal point for this survey along the boundary of Pickens and Greenville Counties. The landscape is defined by the three forks of the Saluda River, including the South Saluda River and North Saluda River, which drain the foothills near Alexander Hill and Jones Hill. This region is characterized by small-scale farming and residential growth, with historical continuity preserved in a high density of family and community burial grounds such as Nine Forks Cem and Hunts Memorial Cem. Significant water features like Rutledge Lake and Belue Lake are scattered among the ridges, while the western edge of the area is marked by the distinct summits of Hickory Nut Mtn and Cedar Rock Mtn. The road network connects older settlements like Hendricks to the larger river valleys, tracing the paths of long-established local routes.
