About this map

Amund sits near the northern boundary of this agricultural landscape in Winnebago County, Iowa, just south of the Minnesota state line. The terrain is defined by a rigid grid of rural roads and managed water systems designed for intensive prairie farming. Significant waterways like the Middle Br Blue Earth River and Little Buffalo Cr wind across the section lines, while the presence of Drainage Ditch Number 64 reflects the long-standing engineering required to maintain this productive cropland.

Infrastructure in this area is sparse but specialized, featuring the Friesenborg & Larson Airport nestled between 460th Street and 470th Street. To the south, the Thompson Roadside Prairie provides a rare conserved pocket of native landscape along the corridor leading toward the larger community of Thompson. This map captures the essential character of a modern Midwestern farming district where hydrology and transportation are strictly aligned.
