1971 Map of Academy

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Academy and the communal settlement of Platte Colony anchor this rural prairie landscape in Charles Mix County during the early 1970s. The terrain transitions from the high plains around Lake George to the deep incisions of the Missouri River valley in the southwest. A significant portion of the landscape is dominated by the waters of Lake Francis Case, with the Platte-Winner Bridge providing a vital crossing point. Local history is preserved in landmarks like the La Roche Cem and the Lake George Sch, while numerous drainages such as Snake Creek and Fivemile Cr carve through the La Roche and Castalia regions. The map includes underwater contours for the reservoir, reflecting a landscape forever altered by large-scale river management projects.
