About this map

Mooney Cemetery and a network of agricultural drainage canals define this Mississippi County landscape in 2011. The terrain is characterized by the winding courses of the Right Hand Chute of Little River and Left Hand Chute of Little River, which surround Big Island and form distinctive landmarks like Sassafras Bend. These watercourses, along with Ditch Number 28 and Ditch Number 73, reflect the intensive water management required for the region's delta farming.

Small settlements and rural junctions are scattered across the grid, including Dell, Wilson Junction, and Victoria. Transportation and local commerce are represented by a dense system of county roads and specialized facilities such as the Simpson Landing Strip and Wesson Landing Strip. Farther north, Mallard Lake provides a notable break in the geometric fields that dominate the area near Pettyville and Roseland.
