USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
Iowa State College serves as the southern anchor for this central Iowa landscape, surveyed in the early 20th century. The settlement of Ames is shown in its younger form, clustered south of the Chicago and Northwestern rail lines. To the north, the Skunk River and its various tributaries, including Keigley Branch and Squaw Creek, dictate the movement of the terrain and the placement of rural infrastructure.
