The bluffs of the Missouri River shape the transition from the river bottom into the rolling loess hills north of Council Bluffs. This terrain is deeply etched by the drainage basins of Mosquito Creek, Pigeon Creek, and Indian Cr, where historical transportation corridors like the Railroad Hwy and Old Lincoln Hwy follow the natural topography. The map illustrates a dense concentration of civic and memorial sites, including the Pottawattamie County Courthouse and numerous burial grounds such as Saint Joseph Cem and Walnut Hill Cem.
