2022 Map of Boswell

About this map

Boswell and the surrounding agricultural landscape of Benton County are defined by an intricate network of drainage systems essential to this region's fertile prairie soil. The town of Boswell sits in the southeast corner, where the local street grid including W South St meets N Old US Highway 41. To the west, small rural settlements and siding locations like Talbot, Handy, and Dunn line the southern corridor, reflecting the historic influence of regional transportation on these plains. Water management is the dominant topographic feature, with named channels such as Salmon Ditch, Gretencord Ditch, and Leuck Ditch lacing across the township lines. The headwaters of the N Fork Vermilion River begin to take shape in the southwest, while Goose Cr and Mud Cr touch the map's eastern and northern boundaries, illustrating the hydrology of this high-productivity farming heartland.
