About this map

Pomme de Terre River meanders through this Polk County landscape, carving a path past small settlements and rural landmarks that define the area's local geography. The river serves as a central artery for the region, noted for historical crossing points like the Sunset Bridge and Woodmansey Ford. These features, along with names like Sunset and Burns, suggest a network of communities connected by water and early transportation routes.

The western portion of the map includes the namesake Cedar Vista and the settlement of Slagle, while the terrain is marked by specific points of interest such as Graveyard Hill and several water management features, including the Owens Lake Section 8 Dam and Hawk Lake Dam. A Landing Strip near the northern border points to localized aviation, and a complex system of creek branches, like McKinney Branch and Kilburn Branch, drain into the primary river basin.
