2018 Map of Glen Elder South

About this map

Glen Elder sits at the northern edge of this landscape, positioned where the Solomon River meets the expansive waters of Waconda Lake. The area south of the dam reveals a classic Mitchell County agricultural pattern, defined by a grid of rural roads like Tipton Rd and Glen Trl that navigate the dissected plains. The drainage network is dense, with Little Walnut Cr and Walnut Cr carving winding paths through the terrain toward the river valley. For those tracing family histories, the map identifies several rural burial sites, including Fairview Cem, Walnut Creek Cem, and Naomi Cem, often located on higher ground overlooking the creek breaks. These sites, along with High Prairie Cem and Honey Creek Cem, serve as primary landmarks for a region defined by its water management and persistent farming heritage.
