1955 Map of Falun

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Falun sits at the intersection of a small rail network and the winding path of the West Fork Smoky Hill River, serving as a central point for this Saline County landscape. The mid-20th-century geography is defined by the significant footprint of the Smoky Hill Air Force Base Bombing Range, which dominates the northern and western sections of the map. This military presence contrasts with the rural character of the southern hills, where several prominent topographic features rise above the creeks, including Soldier Cap Mound, Weston Hill, and Potato Hill.
