About this map

The Missouri River winds along the southern edge of this landscape, framing a region defined by agricultural river bottoms and upland timber. In the late 1940s, the riverside communities of Augusta and Defiance served as local hubs, while the massive Weldon Spring Ordnance Works and the adjacent Augusta Busch Wildlife Area occupied the northeastern corner, reflecting the area's transition from wartime production to conservation.
