About this map

The Mississippi River acts as a sprawling natural divider between Iowa, Wisconsin, and Illinois in this detailed 2022 survey. The landscape is defined by the steep bluffs and hollows characteristic of the Driftless Area, including Plum Hollow, Bobs Hollow, and the Peru Bottoms along the western riverbank. The city of Dubuque serves as a dense urban anchor at the southern edge, where educational and civic landmarks like Clarke University, Loras College, and the Dubuque County Courthouse sit overlooking the Lake Peosta Channel.

Moving north and west, the map documents the suburban and rural expansion into communities such as Asbury, Sageville, and Edmore. This area is punctuated by historical burial grounds including Resurrection Cem and Mount Calvary Cem, while the winding course of the Little Maquoketa River and its confluence near John Deere Marsh highlight the region's complex hydrology. The inclusion of Frith Spur and Rutledge provides specific points of interest for those tracing the development of regional transport and settlement patterns.
