About this map

The Little Sioux River meanders through the heart of this Woodbury County landscape, carving a wide valley that defines the local geography. The town of Correctionville sits at a significant bend in the river, served by the Correctionville Post Office and bordered to the east by the Correctionville Cemetery. Further south, the settlement of Anthon anchors the lower portion of the map near the confluence of Wolf Creek and the river, featuring its own Anthon Post Office and the nearby Oak Hill Cemetery.

The survey captures a transition between the river bottomlands and the grid of rural roads that stretch across the uplands. Recreational and conservation spaces are prominent, including the Sioux Bend Public Hunting Area and the Walling River Access. The placement of the small settlement of Discord and numerous creek systems like Pierson Creek, Threemile Creek, and Coon Creek illustrates the intricate drainage patterns that supported the agricultural development of this region in the early 21st century.
