2015 Map of Falun

About this map

The settlement of Falun serves as the primary focal point in this section of central Kansas, where the landscape is defined by distinct geologic rises and a network of winding creeks. Significant elevations such as Soldier Cap Mound, Potato Hill, Weston Hill, and Coiner Dome punctuate the horizon, providing a dramatic contrast to the drainage basins of Ralston Cr and Spring Cr. The region is marked by a grid of rural roads, including W Salemsborg Rd and W Hedberg Rd, which connect far-flung agricultural properties. For those researching local history or genealogy, the Dry Creek Cem stands as an important site for identifying early residents. The mapping of W Dry Cr and Castle Cr illustrates the hydrological patterns that have shaped land use and settlement in this portion of Saline County.
