2018 Map of Falun

About this map

Falun serves as the primary community in this section of Saline County, where the plains are punctuated by distinct geographic elevations. These natural landmarks, including Soldier Cap Mound, Potato Hill, and Coiner Dome, rise above the surrounding drainage basins of Ralston Cr and Spring Cr. The land is organized by a precise grid of rural roads like S Soderborg Rd and W Salemsborg Rd, reflecting the agricultural heritage of the region. Local history and genealogy are anchored at the Dry Creek Cem, situated near the headwaters of W Dry Cr. The map details the transition between townships T15S and T16S, illustrating how the topography of Weston Hill and nearby ridges influenced the placement of homesteads and thoroughfares in this part of the Smoky Hills region.
