About this map

The confluence of the Solomon River and the Smoky Hill River anchors the landscape of this western Dickinson County region. Near the western edge of the map, the town of Solomon is situated just north of the river junction, with its street grid including Main St and Walnut St clearly defined. Moving east, the terrain follows the winding course of the Smoky Hill River toward the edge of Abilene.

Rural landmarks like the Prairie Mound Cem and the settlement at Sand Spring offer specific points of interest for local historians. The area's hydrology is further detailed by Magnolia Lake, Redbud Lake, and several creeks such as Buckeye Cr and Holland Cr. A network of section-line roads, including Eden Rd and Daisy Rd, creates a geometric contrast to the organic loops of the river valleys, illustrating the agricultural layout of the Kansas plains in the early 21st century.
