Teter Hill Eureka, KS

TeterVille Kansas,

Founded in the 1920's by Mr. James Teter

Teteville was once a Oil boom town Located in the Kansas Flint Hills.

Mr. Teter erected the rocks as land mark .

as the town grew the rocks were used in construction of 

building. the Boom town died out as the oil stop flowing 

now all that is left , a couple of old building foundations

and oil field scrap.

In 1954 a group of people erected

 the rocks that now stand there as tribute to

James Teter

This is the view looking South of Teter Rock

You can see for miles and Miles and Miles

You can't see them in photo's as they were off in the distance.

the Flinthills Plays host to thousands of Wild mustangs

that roam freely across this vast Kansas grassland

Teter Rock Stands all most 16' tall

It was cold and very windy while we were there

I must return and do a series of Sunset or sunrise Photo's

 If you are looking for a great day adventure 

then grab your camera and take lunch 

Teter Hill is close to all points in Central kansas.
