USGS Topo · Published 1923About this map
Fort Dodge sits at the confluence of several major rail lines in the early 1920s, serving as a regional hub where the Illinois Central, Chicago Great Western, and St Louis and Minneapolis railroads converge. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Des Moines River and its numerous tributaries, including Lizard Creek and Deer Creek. This river system dictates the placement of early infrastructure, from the Daniel Boone Trail running along the western bluffs to the settlements of Humboldt and Dakota to the north.
