1964 Map of Kansas Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Smoky Hill River meanders across the border of Dickinson and Geary Counties, carving a wide floodplain that includes the unique formation of Goat Island. This 1964 survey captures the landscape as it transitioned through the mid-20th century, with significant levee systems flanking the river to manage the seasonal flow. The settlement of Kansas Falls sits along the Union Pacific line, marking a point where heavy infrastructure meets the water. To the south, the terrain becomes more varied as Lyon Creek and its tributaries, such as Spring Branch and Schuler Spring, cut through the rural townships of Noble and Rinehart. Local history is preserved in landmarks like the Rinehart Cem, Mt Zion Ch, and the riverside Camp Aubrey Henning, while several quarries and pits indicate the area's geological utility.
