About this map

The Solomon River meanders across this Mitchell County landscape, defining the character of the region just west of Beloit. This portion of the valley is punctuated by several significant tributaries, including Browns Creek and Turkey Creek, which illustrate the complex drainage patterns of the north-central Kansas plains. The small community of Solomon Rapids sits near the river's bend, connected by a network of rural routes such as Solomon Rapids Rd.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Pleasant Valley Cemetery well-marked south of W Main St Rd, providing a specific point of interest for family research in the area. The eastern edge of the map captures the outskirts of the county seat, including the Beloit Municipal Airport and the transition into the town's street grid with W Main and 8th St (H Rd). The infrastructure of the early 21st century is represented through a established system of numbered rural roads like 280 Rd and M Rd.
