About this map

The Maple River valley anchors this West-Central Iowa landscape, winding southward toward the small community of Castana. The settlement is defined by its grid of streets including Ash St, Oak St, and Elm St, situated where Cottonwood Cr joins the larger river. To the southwest, the village of Turin sits at the intersection of Larpenteur Memorial Rd and State Route 175, positioned near the meandering course of the Little Sioux River.

The surrounding terrain is marked by a series of named landforms that reflect local family histories and geographical features, such as Dutch Hollow, Gingles Hollow, and Nutt Hollow in the northeast. Higher elevations like Durr Hill and Granger Hill overlook the floodplains of Arcola Cr and Beaver Cr. This 2013 survey provides a clear look at the rural road network, from the primary corridor of Route 175 to the gravel section lines like Nutmeg Ave and Peach Ave.
