1963 Map of Dongola

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Dongola stands at the heart of this Missouri landscape, situated where the rolling uplands of the Goose Pond Hills meet the modified wetlands of the south. The 1960s terrain reveals a complex water management system, defined by the massive Diversion Channel and its accompanying Levee, designed to control the Castor River and drain the Dark Cypress Swamp. This transition from hills to engineered bottomlands is a primary feature of the region, illustrating the mid-century efforts to reclaim land for agriculture through the Crater Ditch and various drainage projects.
