About this map

The Turkey River and Little Turkey River dominate the landscape of northeast Iowa, carving a network of deep drainages such as Devils Hollow and White Pine Hollow. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the community of Colesburg serves as a local hub, featuring the Lone Pine Golf Course and a defined street grid near the intersection of several county roads. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, with drainage basins like Bloody Run and Pine Cr feeding the larger river systems.

Rural settlements such as Osterdock, Updegraff, and Fairview are connected by a web of local roads, including Osterdock Rd and Wayman Rd. The Osterdock Bridge provides a critical crossing over the Turkey River near the small cluster of buildings at Snefs. This topographic survey illustrates the transition from the upland agricultural plateaus to the deeply incised valleys that characterize this portion of Delaware County.
