2022 Map of Avoca NW

About this map

Shelby sits at the northern edge of this agricultural landscape in Pottawattamie County, where the terrain is defined by a series of north-south drainage systems. The local geography is shaped by the parallel courses of Middle Silver Cr and Silver Cr, which carve through the loess hills of western Iowa before meeting the West Nishnabotna River in the southeast corner. The section lines are clearly marked by a rhythmic grid of roads named for various flora, including Whippoorwill Rd, Tamarack Rd, and Sycamore Rd. For those researching family history in the township, the Silver Valley Cem is a primary landmark situated along Pinoak Rd. This map illustrates the intersection of modern interstate travel with the traditional section-line road network that has organized this farming community for generations.
