About this map

Solomon River meanders across this Mitchell County landscape, defining the character of the valley west of Beloit. The small settlement of Solomon Rapids sits near the river's northern bend, surrounded by a complex network of tributary streams including Browns Cr, Dog Cr, and Mulberry Cr. This 2018 survey reveals a terrain shaped by agriculture and water, where section-line roads like Tipton Rd and M Rd segment the prairie.

Local history is preserved in the placement of the Pleasant Valley Cem and Hopewell Cem, located away from the primary town centers. On the eastern edge of the sheet, the presence of the Moritz Memorial Airport near N Western Ave indicates the modern infrastructure serving this rural Kansas community. The map provides a clear view of the intersection of waterway paths and modern transit routes, tracing several named creeks such as Indian Cr and Turkey Cr as they feed into the primary river system.
