Cordova sits as a quiet settlement amidst a landscape defined by its numerous water bodies and agricultural drainageways in this 2013 survey. The area is heavily marked by man-made alterations to the natural hydrology, specifically through features like County Ditch Number Fiftyone and County Ditch Number Sixtyfour, which serve to manage the land around the region's prominent lakes. Notable among these are Lake Jefferson, German Lake, and Gorman Lake. For those researching local heritage, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites including Gorman Cem, Sabre Lake Cem, and the uniquely named Phebe Jones Lakeside Cem on the shores of German Lake. The presence of Dodd Rd and various county highways like Co Hwy-11 connect these rural lake communities, while the Cannon River meanders through the eastern portion of the quadrangle.
