2015 Map of Albaton

About this map

The Missouri River defines the western edge of this landscape, its path marked by deep curves at Winnebago Bend and Upper Omaha Mission Bend. This riverfront environment transitions into a highly organized agricultural grid, where the small settlement of Albaton sits near Fairview Cem along 120th ST. The drainage of the low-lying plains is managed through the Sand Hill Lake Ditch, which cuts diagonally across the township lines. Historical tribal and state boundaries intersect here, with the map recording the meeting of Monona Co, Woodbury Co, and Thurston Co across the Iowa and Nebraska state line. The road network, including Joe Marshall Way and several Bia Rd 6 routes, provides access to the river's edge and the isolated pockets of terrain formed by the changing course of the water.
